VIDEO: DANCING? Dennis Ombachi mocked for his poor swimming skill under pool while teaching his son how to swim

Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Dennis Ombachi mocked for his poor swimming skill under pool while teaching his son how to swim.

He wrote: "My year’s summary, not much progress but we survived."

Kenyans on Wednesday differed in opinion in their reaction to rugby player Dennis Ombachi's move to put his son on a leash.

In a caption that accompanied a photo and videos on his Twitter handle, the self-taught chef who's gained widespread applause over his parenting style said it was the best way to keep his son from wandering especially in an airport.

"With this one, you blink and he is gone, this leash is the best thing ever. Especially at the airport," Ombachi said.

It's however a delicate balancing act choosing between safety and risk when using them. 

Those opposed to it argue that whereas it may serve to give parents some ease when travelling with impulsive children in crowded places, it poses a myriad of risks.

Psychologists also argue that if practised regularly, leashing children prevents them from developing independent mindsets as they grow up.

They say leashing children conditions them to feel anxiety and prevents them from exploring their world or developing self-reliance, curiosity and confidence.

It all started with a soul search…

In an era where anyone can be famous and where those short 15 seconds of fame can be fashioned in an even shorter period of time, an unlikely hero has emerged. His star is shining brighter and longer; a former rugby player now full-time chef.

Dennis Ombachi, known on social media as The Roaming Chef, is a former Kenyan professional rugby player. He became a regular starter for the illustrious Kenya 7s team at the age of 19 and went on to play for over a decade.

The 31-year-old Olympian has represented The Shujaas on the global stage multiple times. He is well remembered for scoring the try against Zimbabwe sending Kenya through to the Rio 2016 Olympics.

During his career, he suffered multiple injuries. ‘Omba’ as he commonly is referred to as by close friends and local fans, went under the knife five times. He has been open about how each surgery would grind down and diminish his dynamism, speed and olympian dexterity.

He painfully speaks of his fifth surgery after a potentially career-ending broken leg. This sidelined him for six months.

“Of course, you work to come back better and stronger, but there is no denying that there’s a part of you that’s left in the theatre after a surgery, at least for me!”
