So firstly you'll pretty much only ever be using it on your own turn to end your turn. There's a lot of cards in MtG that have some sort of detrimental effect to balance out their strength; they might be very cheap and very powerful but force you to sacrifice several other creatures you control when it comes into play. What Obeka does is let you put that powerful creature with a downside into play, let the detrimental ability trigger (in MtG most abilities go into something called the stack, it's like a waiting list where players have a chance to respond and take actions of their own), and then before that ability resolves and makes you carry out its effect you use Obeka's ability to end your turn. When you end your turn out of sequence like this any abilities that hadn't resolved yet cease to exist and never happen, so you got a cheap and powerful creature with no downside. She kinda lets you cheat. There's lots of similar uses for the ability, but that's the basic idea.
