Media personality Oga Obinna has opened up about the troubled relationship he endured with his father during his childhood. In a candid interview on the Mic Cheque podcast, Obinna shared emotional details of how his father’s strict discipline and harsh punishments deeply affected him.

Obinna recalled how his father would often blame him for mistakes he did not commit and subjected him to severe punishments. Despite being younger than his elder brother, he faced harsher consequences, which left him questioning his father’s love. “My elder brother and I would make mistakes, but I would be punished even more than him. Sometimes, I was even blamed for things I didn’t do,” Obinna revealed.

The mistreatment led to a strained relationship between father and son, causing Obinna to become withdrawn and bitter. However, a turning point came when a disagreement escalated to a dangerous level. Obinna recalled that his father once threatened his life, leading him to flee from home in fear.

“The way I came to Nairobi is that my dad told me he was coming to kill me. My dad and I were not in a good space, and he even instructed that I should not be given food. At times, my mum had to hide food for me. It was bad. One day, I sold some stored maize to get by, but when my dad found out, he was furious. He vowed to punish me severely when he got home,” he narrated.

Fearing for his safety, Obinna made the decision to leave home. His mother, although hesitant, gave him some money while in tears. He attempted to catch a train at the shopping center but missed it. Determined, he made his way to Kisumu and finally managed to get on a train to Nairobi, standing all the way due to overcrowding.

For years, his relationship with his father remained rocky. The pain of his childhood lingered, and Obinna admitted that he struggled with inner turmoil. However, with time, he made the difficult choice to forgive. “I had so much pain, and I think I was lost for a while. My dad and I did not speak for a long time, and I started acting out. Later, I forgave him and even built him a house and bought him a car. But at one point, I blocked him everywhere because I felt like he never loved me,” he shared.

Despite the strained relationship, Obinna eventually made peace with his father, choosing forgiveness for his own healing. “Sometimes, you forgive people who are not even remorseful. We talk occasionally, but not as much as we used to,” he concluded.
