Joshua Baraka’s mother says she has no idea about his relationship with Etania Mutoni

• Baraka’s mother says she does not personally know Etania Mutoni but has only heard good things about her.
• She clarified confusion about the singer’s heritage, confirming he is fully Ugandan despite Kenyan and Rwandese roots.
• She described their family as average and never expected Baraka’s rapid rise to international success.

Musician Joshua Baraka’s mother has opened up about her son’s relationship with media personality Etania Mutoni, revealing that she has never met her officially despite the couple dating for about two years. Baraka and Etania’s romance has been widely celebrated across social media, with fans constantly praising their chemistry and wishing them a lasting future together.

However, when Baraka’s mother was asked during the singer’s recently concluded concert whether she knows Etania, she calmly responded that she doesn’t—at least not yet. She added that she has only heard positive things about her through the media and online chatter.

“All I know about Etania is that she is a good girl. I hope I will also appreciate her when Joshua finally introduces her to the family formally,” Baraka’s mother said.

The pair’s lovey-dovey relationship continues to fascinate netizens, many of whom believe the couple could eventually take things to the next level with marriage.

During the same interaction, Baraka’s mother also addressed long-standing confusion about the star’s heritage. Over the years, Joshua Baraka has alternated between identifying as Kenyan, Ugandan, and occasionally Rwandese, leaving fans unsure of his true background.

She clarified that the singer’s father’s grandparents originally relocated from Kenya to Uganda. She herself is of Rwandese descent but was born in Uganda—just like Baraka’s father. Therefore, she affirmed that the singer is fully Ugandan, regardless of the mixed ancestry.

Baraka’s mother further dispelled the belief that the musician was a “planned” child or came from a wealthy background. Instead, she described them as an average, humble family that never anticipated his rise to global stardom.

“When God has blessed you, nothing can stop you from soaring higher,” she added with pride.
