LAGOS — Tragedy was averted, yesterday, in Ikorodu area of Lagos when two girls engaged their father in a fisticuffs.

Although no life was lost in the incident which lasted for over an hour but the children (names withheld) were hospitalised while their father also sustained slight injury.

Problem started around 10 a.m when the children, ages 20 and 15, whose parents had been separated for 14 years, allegedly laid ambushed for their father who was driving in Gberigbe area of the town.

According to an eye witness, the children who had earlier complained of lack of care allegedly swooped on their father after intercepting his car. In the process, they demanded for money for upkeep which the man was unable to provide and this infuriated the children who allegedly attacked him.

In the process, the father invited one of his friends and both of them overpowered the girls.

Sympathisers later arrived the scene and brokered peace and reported the incident at a nearby police division.

What has d world changed to?

Wao!
Effect of a house not together.
The role of a father and mother in the house is important.
If the father is passing certain values to the children, the mother will add hers to it too.
Makes the kid grow up well rounded.
©op....the children should get jobs. Especially the 20 year old.

Effect of separated parents/family.


I woudnt be surprised if their mother is the masterplanner of the whole thing.


May God help us all.

I dont want to believe that someone else is not the masterplanner, the person i dont authoritatively say, but, most likely their mother, because, she might be feeling cheated.

that is what some fathers get for being irresponsible,especially those men that think fatherhood is only about getting a woman pregnant

The bolded is indeed most unfair speculation. I am not excusing what the daughters did but children need the support of their parents. If the man has been irresponsible, living a comfortable life whilst the daughters and their mother live in penury, the man needs to take 80% of the blame for what happened. He might have pushed the children to the limit.

If the man is not alive, it is a different matter, but if he is alive? Give us a break!
