Yul Edochie, says his father, the Nollywood legend Pete Edochie used corporal punishment to cause a swift change of heart when he decided to quit school for business as a teenager.
The Nollywood actor in a tweet revealed that his father gave him a beating that “reset my brain to factory setting”.
The 38-year-old actor took to Twitter to express gratitude to his father for that beating.
Shedding light on his past, Yul said Pete invited him into his room, locked the door and pulled out his belt.
He posted: “In JS2, I told my father I didn’t want to go to school anymore, he should open electrical shop for me. He said ok. He invited me to his room, locked the door & pulled out his belt. He gave me a beating that reset my brain to factory setting. Look at me today. Thank you Dad!”.
