A Nigerian doctor living in the United Kingdom has lost custody of his young kid to the British government after beating him with a belt.
Pepstalk1, a child rights campaigner, revealed in an Instagram video on Wednesday that it recently occurred in the United Kingdom.
Pepstalk1 told the court where the matter was being heard that the Nigerian doctor flogged his son after catching him and his pals, whom he had invited for a sleepover study, watching an improper movie.
According to her, his friends reportedly informed the police. They told the police that the doctor repeatedly said, “Is this how you want to become a doctor?” while beating the boy with a belt.
“In court, the 16-year-old told the court that his father always flogs him and is forcing him to choose a career he doesn’t want.
“After listening to the boy’s testimony, the court ordered that the boy be taken away from his father and he will remain in the custody of the UK government,”
she said.
