Kevin Ombima, best known by his performance name King Kaka (formerly Rabbit), has never shied away from showing his softer side on social media circles.

On Tuesday, he was full of praise for his mother as she turned a year older.

What started with a moving message on Facebook about his mother, turned into a surprise birthday treat as Kaka flew her to Mombasa for the celebrations.

The rapper and his mother spent the whole day Wednesday 26th at the coast where they visited Fort Jesus and enjoyed a boat ride.

They returned to Nairobi on the same day, touching down at JKIA at around 8pm.
