Kenyan comedy star Eunice Wanjiru Njoki, popularly known as Mammito, has officially embraced motherhood, welcoming her first child today, Wednesday, March 26, 2025.
The exciting news, shared on social media, has thrilled fans and the entertainment industry alike, marking a joyous milestone for the beloved comedienne, who has captivated Kenyans with her sharp wit and relatable humor.
Mammito shared the heartwarming news in the early hours of March 26, posting a tender photo of herself in a hospital bed, breastfeeding her newborn. Dressed in a blue hospital gown, she cradled her baby—swaddled in a pink onesie—beaming with the unmistakable glow of a new mother. While she kept the gender reveal subtle, the pink attire hinted at the possibility of a baby girl, though no official confirmation has been made as of 6:10 PM EAT. Captioning the post with a simple yet poignant message, “To have your heart in human form,” Mammito left her followers in awe and celebration.
Reports from outlets like Tuko.co.ke and posts on X indicate that the baby’s name is “Babeto,” a playful and endearing choice that aligns with Mammito’s quirky persona. The comedienne, who has kept much of her pregnancy journey under wraps, had teased fans with glimpses of her baby bump in recent months, though some skeptics initially dismissed it as a publicity stunt. Today’s reveal silenced the doubters, proving that Mammito’s journey to motherhood was very real—and now complete.
Mammito, 31, has always maintained a private stance on her personal life, despite her high-profile career. Born on September 18, 1993, in Kibera, she rose from humble beginnings to become one of Kenya’s most celebrated comedians, gaining widespread recognition through her performances on Churchill Show and her daring, humorous skits online.

Her pregnancy, subtly hinted at in late 2024, took many by surprise, as she chose to share only select moments rather than documenting the journey in full.
True to her nature, Mammito has kept the identity of her child’s father a well-guarded secret. In a past interview, she firmly stated that she would not reveal his identity, emphasizing her desire to protect their relationship from public scrutiny. “I don’t want anything to ruin what we have,” she told a local outlet.
Despite ongoing speculation about whether the father is a fellow entertainer or a private individual, Mammito’s attention today remains firmly on her new journey into motherhood.
