Nigerian popular stand-up comedian and actor Bovi Ugboma popularly known as Bovi, has opened up about the impact of bullying in Nigerian schools, revealing that it was a significant factor in his decision to move his family to the United Kingdom.
In a recent interview on the ‘Uncolored podcast’, which gained significant attention on Wednesday, Bovi shared that his children have been residing in the UK for the past two years.
He revealed that his eldest son first moved abroad in 2021 to attend boarding school, and shortly after, the rest of the family joined him.
Bovi reflected on his own time in a Nigerian boarding school, where he developed resilience and learned to navigate tough situations.
However, he explained that he decided against sending his children to a boarding school in Nigeria, because of what he described as the widespread and normalized culture of bullying.
Bovi said:
“My kids don’t live in the country anymore. They have been in the UK for two years now. It started by accident, my first son has been there since 2021 in a boarding house.
“I went to boarding school in Nigeria and it made me street-smart. So I decided that my kid needs to go boarding but they won’t go to a boarding school where a fellow student would discipline or beat up my kid. I don’t like bullying, because the educational system has accepted bullying.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>
