“I wish my father loved me” cries Oga Obinna

Growing up with parents who barely show you any love can be traumatizing for any child and I guess this is why a grown man like Oga Obinna, still wishes he had a more loving dad.

I mean, it’s no secret that his dad treated him different because of his cheeky behavior which ruined their relationship. Speaking just recently, Obinna opened up about his struggling relationship with his dad saying;

I never had a father figure. I was the loud one and the noisy one. I used to think I was cursed because a mistake would happen, and my dad would beat me without finding out what happened. You will find that probably it was not me, but because he already beat me, so I would never snitch on the other person.

For that reason they both grew apart and Oga Obinna still held on to the grudges saying;

I am the type of person who holds grudges. I can hold grudges over years. So when he kicked me out of his home, I held that grudge. When I came to Nairobi, did everything I did, and Obinna happened, I said I am not going to forgive him.

Although their relationship still struggles, Oga Obinna recently spoke to SPM buzz where he confessed wanting a different relationship with his.

According to the Kiss FM presenter, he wishes his dad treated him like the rest of his siblings or even just loved him for who he is.

  I wish I had a more loving father and a friend.

However he still doesn’t regret how their relationship turned out because thanks to that kind of pain, he managed to make something out of himself, a career and a family he always wanted.

Maybe or maybe not because probably. If My father would have been present, maybe I would not have felt the urge to go out of my shell and probably I wouldn’t be me. Or maybe If I had that one loving dad, I would be a better, a better human being. I would be a better father, better friend maybe.

Wacha ikae! Oga Obinna forced to cut off his dad after years of trying to fix their strained relationship

Kiss FM presenter Oga Obinna is said to be a dad of many and why most tend to judge him is because he has had 3 baby mamas and 4 kids. To any woman, this would come off as a red flag but there’s also something unique about him.

 

Maybe Oga Obinna isn’t the type to settle down with one woman – stay committed for life; but all I know is that he is a good dad to his 4 kids. Unlike other men who run away from their kids simply because their dads took off too or even mistreated them when young – Obinna does the opposite.

Rumor has it that all his kids are enrolled in private schools, child support is taken care of and he remains present in his kids lives – something his own daddy never gave him. Speaking recently during an interview with Buzz central Oga Obinna opened up about his strained relationship with his dad saying; the old man never accepted him as a son and was always picking on him.

He was no father to me

According to Obinna, his dad preferred his eldest brother over him simply because Obinna was the trouble marker of the family. Opening up about his experience, the fella said;

I never had a father figure. I was the loud one and the noisy one. I used to think I was cursed because a mistake would happen, and my dad would beat me without finding out what happened. You will find that probably it was not me, but because he already beat me, so I would never snitch on the other person.

With the beatings and getting picked on getting worse, Obinna says the bitterness built up and he mastered the art of holding grudges till date.

I am the type of person who holds grudges. I can hold grudges over years. So when he kicked me out of his home, I held that grudge. When I came to Nairobi, did everything I did, and Obinna happened, I said I am not going to forgive him.

Cutting dad off for good

Having struggled to win over his dad, the two are back to square one – but this time around Obinna says he is done trying to make his dad accept him.

Speaking about what led to their fallout recently, the fella said;

A situation happened in the family Whatsapp group, and he came guns blazing towards me. I was not the one with the mistake, and he had heard stories from one side. I listened to the voice note and tried to explain to him what had happened. I even told him I was trying to remedy the situation, but he continued unloading and I also unloaded and told him, ‘listen ni**a, you were never there, and you are not telling me sh*t’. It was very bad and I was like ‘everybody back to their corner, don’t call me and don’t talk to me.’ So I decided to cut him off again and focus on my life. I blocked and exited the group, and we are back to where we began.

This however comes after the Kiss FM presenter had just built him a home and had gifted him a car – just as a token of appreciation to his dad – but then again, to his father’s eyes Obinna wasn’t good enough.
