Speaking in an interview with content creator, Flossy
Trukid, Obinna candidly described children as “expensive”, noting that the
rising cost of parenting continues to weigh heavily on families.
He narrated how the incident unfolded over the weekend when
his daughters returned from the salon with a bill that left him shocked.
“Kids are expensive, over the weekend wameninyorosha na
bill hapa hivi, the budget ya nywele wamesukwa hapa juzi up to 45,000,” he
said, emphasizing how routine activities can quickly escalate into significant
expenses.
Obinna explained that modern parents face mounting financial

as parents feel compelled to ensure their children look presentable and
confident, sometimes at a steep cost.

amount on a salon visit, while many shared their own stories of rising
childcare expenses.
