Most Irrelevant Reasons That Could Earn You A Beating In A Nigerian Home

Growing up in a Nigerian home was tough.

Most parents lived by the Bible verse, ‘Spare the rod and spoil the child’. It was their daily Mantra. Most times, the offences were very irrelevant and the beating would leave you dazed and confused.

A twitter user asked this question:

lmfao what is the dumbest reason your parents have gotten mad at you?
