Gentlemen, these are the exact words I heard in a conversation between Obinna and his daughter. "Bra top zinanifinya, nataka kufanyiwa surgery ning'olewe matiti na Dad najua hata wewe hujavaa underwear! Prove kama umevaa". I watched the video as I was fighting insomnia and let me tell you kang'ethe, I had to opt out just to ask Google how to slap someone online.
Lack of respect in the name of content is driving our society into the pit. How can a daughter discuss about his father's wandawea? As in how does that conversation even begin? This nonsense from our content creators needs to be tamed.
Beyond the humor and disbelief, this incident exposes a much deeper problem,, the growing gap between parents and children, especially in families where the mother���s presence is missing or minimal.
A mother plays a critical role in shaping her daughter’s character, modesty, and understanding of boundaries. She is the one who teaches her what to say, how to say it, and most importantly, when to shut up. The bond between a mother and daughter is not just emotional,, it’s educational and moral.
Through my observation especially as a father of two beautiful girls, a daughter learns how to behave, how to express herself respectfully, and how to navigate sensitive topics like body image and sexuality from the mother.
When that maternal presence is absent, especially in a household where the father is more of a content creator than a role model, confusion takes over. Children start mistaking shock value for confidence, and vulgarity for freedom of speech. The result is a generation that chases attention rather than values.
In Obinna’s case, we’ve seen him parade different women in front of his children, turning his home into a revolving door of fornication. What kind of lesson does that give a young girl who’s trying to understand relationships, respect, and self-worth? You cannot plant chaos and expect discipline to grow.
Mothers bring balance. They provide the emotional compass and moral filter that keeps daughters grounded, especially during the turbulent teenage years. Without that guiding hand, many young girls learn from TikTok instead of their mums, from clout instead of counsel.
The society may laugh, comment & move on from Obinna’s video, but the lesson remains loud and clear,, a mother’s presence is not optional. It’s the anchor that keeps a daughter from drifting into moral confusion in a world already flooded with noise and nonsense.
Earlier today, I tendered my resignation from the position of the Vice Chairperson of the @compensationke. I will continue to agitate for Justice for all Victims, and pursue all key deliverables I had set out to attain.
Africans really amaze me. They always complain about western interference and neo-colonization but do nothing about it. Always playing the victim. If we need to change, we need to act. Not complain how France or US is taking our resources.
