Rage As Father Flogs 18-Year-Old Daughter
By Ayodele Oluwafemi
Mixed reactions have trailed a viral video, in which a father was seen flogging his 18-year-old daughter for joining a WhatsApp group against his order.
In the now-viral video, the father was flogging the girl with belt on her buttock, while a female voice, apparently the mother, was asking the girl for the offence she committed.
It was learnt that the father told his 18-years-old daughter not to join a WhatsApp group, an order that was flouted by the daughter.
The incident has ignited the social media debate on parenting.
In recent times, the Nigeria social media space has been in constant argument on the best approach to parenting, with some believing that strict discipline should be inculcate in child through cane, while some are of the opinion that flogging should not be used to inculcate discipline in a child.
The recent video has been greeted with mixed reactions from Nigerians.
Some argued that the girl at 18 was old enough to associate with any group, on and offline.
Some came in defense of the father, arguing that the father has the right to discipline his daughter and control her association with people.
