Oga Obinna’s baby mama Tallie, popularly known as Mama Ella, has broken her silence on rumours circulating online that her daughter had been withdrawn from school and relocated upcountry.
The move comes on the heels of a turbulent period for Tallie, who recently went live on TikTok to appeal for financial support so she could build a business of her own.
She made clear during that session that while Obinna does meet his financial obligations towards their daughter Ella, she is determined to achieve her own independence rather than rely on him for her personal upkeep.
The fallout between the two has played out very publicly.
Tallie has previously said that Obinna asked her to leave his home, with some social media messages suggesting she was starting a fresh chapter in her life.
Obinna, for his part, has maintained that he covers Ella’s needs, including school fees, and hit back at suggestions he had neglected the child, alleging that Tallie had taken Ella to her mother upcountry without his knowledge.
Which school did Tallie take daughter?
In a pointed video update shared on Monday, October 26, Tallie drove straight to Pink Tower Montessori Kindergarten in Lavington to shut down the speculation.
Her caption left little room for doubt:
“They want us to lose so badly till we return upcountry. But God is not Kinuthia. Glory be to God.”
On-screen text in the clip drove the point home further, with Tallie directly addressing those spreading the story:
“For those saying the child had dropped out of school and taken to the village, where is this?”
The update drew a mix of sympathy, blunt honesty and unsolicited advice from Kenyans in the comments section.

“Nobody cares apart from yourself and Obinna. The rest of us will just hype you and continue with our lives.”
@purity_humphrey agreed, adding:
“The truth is nobody cares. We just love chaos, dramas to just keep us entertained.”
@aishaali_001 urged Tallie to step back from the spotlight, writing:
“Keep Ella out of public eyes and scrutiny till this dust settles.”
@mantashaa said:
“I never expected this from you. I wish you all the best.”
@brenda.nyongesa offered a quieter take:
“You really don’t have to prove anything to anyone.”
