Bovi Ugbonna, a comedian, has spoken out about his strained relationship with his father as a child.
In an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Bovi stated that he will not raise his children in the same manner as he was raised by his father.
“I grew up in a home, but we were not pals. But over time, I have had the ability to study and know that you can never make anybody responsible for your happiness,” he said.
“Neither can you blame everybody for your misfortune, everybody will answer for themselves.
“I have grown to the point where I am like, my Oldman was doing according to what he knows, probably if he knew more, things would have been different.
“It’s not like we were always fighting but I don’t want to raise my kids the way I grew up under my old man, so, I am trying to be different”.
The comedian, however, spoke friendly of his late mum, adding that he thinks of her every day despite her demise six years ago.
“I miss everything about my mum. It has been 6 years now, but I still think about her every day,” he said.
“There is something that will happen in a day that I will remember, that’s how I know how much impact she left. Everything I have become is because of her.”
