Nyako and Oga Obinna recently clashed after a comment from the outspoken TikToker sparked an online drama. The controversy began when Nyako criticized the outfit worn by Prince Indah at his traditional wedding. She mocked the attire, claiming that it looked more like something a Catholic priest would wear and suggested that the designer should be fired. She went further to describe the wedding as “overrated” and argued that it lost its significance.
In defense of Prince Indah, Obinna stepped in, urging critics to mind their business and allow people to express themselves on their special day. He emphasized that individuals should have the freedom to dress as they wish on their wedding day, saying, “Let everyone arrange their weddings and wear whatever they want. Let’s stop this habit of having opinions about things that we did not donate anything to, were not invited to, or do not concern us.” Obinna’s comments encouraged people to respect others’ choices and avoid unnecessary judgment.
However, Nyako didn’t take kindly to Obinna’s remarks. In a fiery TikTok livestream, she took aim at Obinna, questioning his relevance and downplaying his fame. She mocked his claim of being a prominent figure, pointing out that he had never even visited Uganda. Nyako sarcastically asked, “What will your name help me with? Hujanusa ata Entebbe,” implying that Obinna’s celebrity status held no value for her. She went further to criticize Obinna’s appearance, accusing him of skin-lightening and making snide remarks about his appearance, suggesting that if he needed better skin-lightening products, he should call someone who could help.
Nyako’s fiery response sparked mixed reactions from her followers and the public. Some found her comments hilarious and appreciated her sense of humor, while others felt she was unnecessarily bitter and combative. Many online users expressed amusement at her jabs at Obinna, particularly her comments about him never visiting Uganda, which many found funny. However, there were those who found her behavior attention-seeking and suggested that her comments came off as angry and confrontational.
In a turn of events, Obinna later apologized to Nyako. The apology came after an earlier incident at the Marwa Luo Awards, where Nyako’s brother attended in her place to accept an award on her behalf. During the event, Obinna repeatedly referred to Nyako’s brother as “Big Daddy,” a man who had been previously accused of leaking Nyako’s private videos. Obinna’s remarks drew backlash from netizens, who accused him of being disrespectful. He later clarified that he was unaware that the man he referred to as “Big Daddy” was actually Nyako’s brother, and he issued an apology for any offense caused.
This incident has left many people divided in their opinions. Some support Nyako for standing her ground and calling out Obinna, while others believe that her response was excessive and uncalled for. Regardless, the online drama surrounding the clash between Nyako and Obinna continues to fuel discussions among Kenyans and beyond.
