In a candid moment on the popular Black
and White Podcast, Kenyan media personality Shee Anne heaped praise on fellow media figure Oga Obinna.
During the episode, Shee Anne spoke passionately about the qualities she admires in Obinna, especially when it comes to how he engages with his children, most of whom are daughters.
“There’s one man hua naapreciate in Kenya... Wacha tu nimtaje jina, Oga Obinna. Ananibamba tu,” Shee Anne said on the podcast.
“I love the way that man stays with his kids. He’s such an inspiration… I wish ma dads wote wangekua wanaangalia the way Obinna hua ana hundle.”
Translated roughly from the Swahili-infused sentiment, Shee Anne was expressing deep admiration for Obinna’s commitment to his children, praising him for setting a high standard for fatherly involvement.
She continued:
“Unaona venye anakaaga na watoto wake, and most of them are girls. Ghaaii! But that man is so understanding.”
A Model of Modern Fatherhood
Her remarks quickly resonated with many online as a refreshing and heartfelt appreciation of positive parenting.
Rather than focusing only on Obinna’s career as a media personality and TV host, Shee Anne zeroed in on his role at home — a space often overlooked when public figures are discussed in the media.
Shee Anne’s praise comes at a time when conversations around fatherhood, gender roles, and parental involvement are increasingly part of Kenya’s cultural dialogue.

Many parents — particularly fathers — have faced public criticism for being absent or disengaged.
Against that backdrop, Obinna’s approach stood out in Shee Anne’s view as inspiring and counter-cultural.
Her specific mention that Obinna has mostly daughters struck a chord with many listeners, who applauded how he reportedly engages with his children emotionally and personally — something Shee Anne emphasised as a major factor in why she finds him admirable.
Social Media Reacts
Fans who watched the podcast clip online responded positively, with many agreeing with Shee Anne’s sentiment.
A thread sharing the highlights of her comments quickly amassed likes and shares across platforms.
Many users noted that celebrating good examples of fatherhood is overdue and that Obinna’s style — affectionate, present, and understanding — offers a blueprint for others.
Comments were as followed:
@PRESTWIK: At least someone has said

Other social media users took the praise as an opportunity to spark discussions about broader societal expectations of fathers in Kenya.
Some noted that being emotionally present with children — especially daughters — can help challenge stereotypes and support healthier family dynamics.
