Bovi explains why it is wrong to empower students to discipline students

Nigerian stand up comedian Bovi Ugboma has explained why it is not proper for schools to empower students to discipline other students in the same school.

The comedian who preached against the act while speaking at the Excellence in Leadership conference said that it is insane to empower students to discipline students.

Bovi also argued that such empowerment encourages bullying in schools.

He said; ‘’It is insane. We are crazy in this country, you have no idea. There is nothing normal about it that my child that I gave birth to, I will come to school and they will tell me one student punished him, either by flogging or asking him to kneel down.

‘‘The oldest child in a secondary school is an average of 16 years. What does a sixteen year old know? Then you give that child power to discipline another child. There is nothing right about it”.
