Comedian Abovi Ugbomah, aka Bovi, has said that netizens who wish to beat their children can do so. His statement was a reaction to the criticisms he got because he said he doesn’t beat his children.
In an interview on the Honest Bunch podcast, Bovi noted that his son has broken three of his televisions. However, he tweeted that the boy has speech impediment and a communication problem that is beginning to improve.
Some netizens said that if his son still broke three televisions with his parenting method, then his pattern was wrong.
Other social media users shared their experiences when they lived with their parents or relatives who beat them in the form of correction.

Reactions to Bovi’s parenting style
Check out some of the reactions as Bovi fires back at netizens judging him for not beating his children.
@kingsbenson_:
“In 2001, my uncle flogged the life outa me when I went to play football. I had sores for almost 2 months. It was like the worst times of my life. I still have the scars. Saw him one day & thought of running him over. I had to hold back. Abusing a child leaves deep pains.””
@Prince_hardeyx:
“While I was growing up my parents are not poor but we are not rich too but we know value of things. My dad has never touch me too but them no born me well to spoil anything.”
@9jabadger:
“Oga stop beating a dead horse. You messed up and own up to your shii.”
@DaMccoya:
“And breaking TVs was the only way he learnt to communicate with you? This is the problem with overly emotional men.”
@israel_takeme:
“We love you bro but you no get sense for this one.”
Bovi shares essence of training male children
Earlier, Legit reported that Bovi has stressed the essence of teaching male children how to treat females early so that it will be useful to them in relationships.
He stated that the failure to do so has brought a lot of resistance from women who are not comfortable with how some men were raised.
The funnyman said children were more aware of what they do in the social media era, hence they must be guided.
