Media personality Oga Obinna and content creator Dem Wa Facebook appear to be at odds, as hinted by their recent cryptic social media posts.
Missed Birthday Fuels Speculation
Rumors of a rift began when Oga Obinna was noticeably absent from Dem Wa Facebook’s birthday celebration. While she didn’t name him directly, Dem Wa Facebook posted a video with a veiled message about managing expectations:
“Kuna wenye nilialika hawakuja… Lakini with or without them tulifanya tu event vizuri (There are those I invited who didn’t come… But with or without them, we still had a good event),” said the Pulse Influencer Awards 2024 winner.
She also advised event planners not to place too much reliance on VIP guests, as they might fail to show up.
Shortly after her post, Oga Obinna shared his own cryptic message, stating:
“Do you know why a ship sinks? It’s not because of the water around it. It’s because of the water that gets inside it. Yeah. If you know, you know.”
While neither mentioned the other by name, fans quickly connected the dots, speculating that their posts were subtle jabs at one another.
A Successful Yet Challenging Partnership
In an earlier interview with Martin Dean, Oga Obinna shared the origins of their partnership. After recognizing Dem Wa Facebook’s potential during an appearance on his show, he decided to collaborate with her on The Weekly Show. Initially, he planned to pair her with another content creator, but when that fell through, they began working together exclusively.
The duo quickly became fan favorites, with Dem Wa Facebook emerging as the more relatable face of their collaborations. However, Obinna revealed there were hurdles along the way. He claimed some individuals discouraged her from working with him, suggesting he was no longer relevant.
“There were people talking negatively… They started telling her to stop associating with me because ‘nimeisha’ (I’m no longer relevant),” he said.
Obinna also addressed claims that he was exploiting her, but Dem Wa Facebook and her manager chose to continue the partnership, acknowledging the opportunities it had created for her.
Uncertain Future for The Weekly Show
Fans have noticed that The Weekly Show, where the two discussed current affairs and celebrity news, hasn’t aired regularly. This has only added to speculation about their professional and personal dynamics.
What’s Next?
Neither Obinna nor Dem Wa Facebook has publicly clarified the state of their relationship or the future of their show. For now, their social media posts have left fans divided—some hopeful for reconciliation, while others predict the end of their collaboration.
