After a video of a father beating his son for failing in school despite spending $21,000 on him, went viral, actor Yul Edochie decided to join the conversation and share his story.
The actor recounted how his father and Nollywood veteran actor, Pete Edochie dealt with him after telling him he wanted to drop out of school and set up an electrical shop.
The actor revealed that when he was in J.SS 2, his father ‘gave him a beating that reset his brain’ after he told him to open an electrical shop for him, instead of going to school.
He tweeted;
In JS2, I told my father I didn’t want to go to school anymore, he should open electrical shop for me. He said ok. He Invited me to his room, locked the door & pulled out his belt. He gave me a beating that reset my brain to factory setting. Look at me today. Thank you Dad!
Yul’s action however left many Nigerians ”shocked” as they have taken to Twitter to hilariously react to his story.
One Twitter user wrote: ‘ Yul get mind o. I breathe respectfully if Pete Edochie is on TV.’
