Bovi blasts priest who knocks the head of altar boy
Nigerian comedian Bovi condemns a priest who physically abused an altar boy in a viral video, calling for justice and highlighting the prevalence of unchecked abuse in Nigeria
Nigerian comedian, Bovi blasts priest who knocked altar boy's head in a viral video, spreading on social media. He stated this in an instagram post, saying
"I've been trying to ignore this video like it never happened but after watching the apology video this morning, I'm more livid and miffed at the rate at which most forms of abuse go unchecked in Nigeria.
In the poorly staged apology video, the priest described his actions as "normal correction" and "a minor correction". He was even encouraged by another apology of an adult who I couldn't tell who he was exactly, that he would have blamed the priest if he didn't do that.
He hit a defenseless child. He humiliated that child. He harmed that child's confidence. He hit the head of the child for a very flimsy reason. Now imagine when that child does something really wrong.
A priest who couldn't control himself in public. Take a moment to think about what hes capable of doing behind closed doors. If we think this is normal behavior, then we are all abnormal.
Knocking a kid in the head unprovoked is a violent and criminal act. @nigerianpolice why haven't you invited this man? If you fight for one child, you will be saving very many others. We must prevent and put out small fires before we all get consumed.
In a society where a virgin priest who preaches the teachings of Jesus uses physical harm to convey his unprocessed emotions, there is bound to be doom.
We're probably in hell already."
