08th May, 2026 11:22 PM
Content creator Obidan Dela has penned an emotional message to people who lost their mothers ahead of Mother’s Day 2026, assuring them that they are also remembered and appreciated during the special celebration.
Speaking in a TikTok video on Friday, May 8, 2026, Obidan acknowledged that while many people would be celebrating with their mothers during the occasion, there are also others carrying painful memories after losing their parents.
“So guys, I know very well that there are those people who do not have their mums. And you know it is Mother’s Day and we also have to celebrate them,” Obidan said.
The content creator said he understands that many people have emotional stories surrounding the loss of their mothers and encouraged them to openly share those experiences with him in the comment section.
According to him, the initiative is aimed at ensuring that people whose mothers are no longer alive also feel recognised and comforted during the Mother’s Day celebrations.
“I know many of you have painful stories about how you lost your mums, so share those stories with me and tag me in the comments section, and we will look at how we can give you a gift hamper,” he added.
Obidan further disclosed that some of the individuals who share their stories would receive gift hampers as part of the celebrations, explaining that he wanted to extend love and support to those grieving or struggling emotionally.
He additionally noted that vulnerable individuals who may be in need of assistance or support should also reach out, promising that arrangements would be made to help them where possible.
“We want to celebrate you as well during this special Mother’s Day 2026. Your mothers are in heaven, and we are also sorry for your loss. If you are needy or going through challenges and may need us to support you, let us know, and we will make all the necessary arrangements. We will support you,” he clarified.
Update on Kwa Mbae boy
Previously, Obidan had revealed that ‘Kwa Mbae’ boy will not be joining a boarding school yet, despite receiving sponsorship offers and massive financial support from Kenyans following his rise to fame.
“So guys, as you can see today, I am here with Mbae again, his sister Joy, and their mum as well. And about the debate concerning school and Mbae going to a boarding school that had offered to sponsor him after going viral, we have decided that both Mbae and his sister will not move to any of those schools,” Obidan said.
He explained that one of the main reasons behind the decision involved Joy’s academic calendar, noting that she is currently sitting her Grade 6 examinations in preparation for transitioning to Grade 7, making a transfer at this stage impractical.
“They will continue schooling in the schools they were in before fame. For example, the sister Joy is currently in the middle of her exams because she is doing her Grade 6 papers so she can proceed to Grade 7, so transferring her right now would not work,” he stated.
Regarding Mbae, Obidan disclosed that they had already visited the boarding school that had offered to sponsor his education, but later concluded that the child was still too young for such an environment.
He noted that Mbae is only five years old, while the youngest boys currently enrolled at the institution are around ten years old, raising concerns about whether he would comfortably adapt to boarding school life.
“We also went to the school that had offered to sponsor Mbae, but we realised that he is very small for boarding school. He is only five years old, and the youngest boy in that school is at least ten years old,” Obidan said.

Obidan further explained that the child would instead remain in the local primary school he has been attending, where he is already familiar with the environment and receives support from teachers who understand and care for him.
He added that keeping Mbae near his family, especially his mother, was also an important consideration in the final decision.
“So Mbae will also stay in the local primary school he was schooling in for some more time so that he can remain close to his family, particularly his mum,” he shared.
