YouTuber Oga Obinna has accused women on social media of influencing his baby mama, Tallie, popularly known as Mama Ella, after she opened up about her financial struggles and appealed for support to restart her business.
In a video shared on Sunday, October 26, 2026, Obinna said he feared their daughter would suffer the consequences of decisions influenced by people he believes do not have the child’s best interests at heart.
Obinna criticised women who, according to him, pretend to support one another but abandon them when the consequences of their advice emerge.
“It’s interesting how women pretend to each other that they care about each other. But they help you spoil the little good thing you have going for yourself or for your children,” he said.
He added that people on social media often offer advice without considering how their suggestions could affect families.
“So now an innocent child is about to suffer the consequences of bad decisions, and there’s nothing much you can do but watch,” he said.
Obinna maintained that his priority was the welfare of his daughter and not a public dispute with Tallie over custody.
Obinna outlines two options
The comedian said he had presented Tallie with two options regarding their daughter’s living arrangements.
According to Obinna, the first option was for the child to remain in the current arrangement, where he said she attends an international school and has her needs provided for.
He said he would continue providing for the child if Tallie chose that option.
The second option would allow Tallie to leave with their daughter while maintaining access to the father. Obinna said arrangements could also be made for the child to spend weekends with him.
“I gave two best options, and I said, pick the one you think is best for the child and I’ll support you with that,” he said.
However, he expressed concern about the uncertainty surrounding the child’s schooling and living arrangements, saying he did not know whether she would attend school the following Monday.
‘I will only provide for a child I have access to’
Obinna said his financial support depended on having access to his daughter.
“Remember, I will only support and provide for a child I have access to. If I don’t see the child, if I don’t have access to the child, yeah,” he said.
He also questioned advice he said he had seen on TikTok suggesting that Tallie take the child to her mother while she worked on rebuilding her life.
Obinna argued that decisions about the child should prioritise her welfare rather than be driven by disagreements between adults or pressure from people online.
He further warned against assuming that social media users offering advice would be available to help when difficulties arose.
