- A Nigerian woman shared how her young son broke two TVs in one year, forcing her and her husband to split the cost of the third.
- She humorously revealed that she now “guards the TV with her life,” admitting she even mounted it higher on the wall and rushes to check whenever the house gets too quiet.
A Nigerian woman has left many social media users laughing after revealing how she now guards her television with her life, all thanks to her playful son who has already damaged two TVs this year.
The woman, identified as @seyithemie on X (formerly Twitter), shared a photo of a cracked television screen alongside a hilarious account of her ordeal.
According to her, her son broke the first two TVs earlier in the year, but she didn’t stress much because her husband quickly replaced them. However, the third time was different — her husband refused to bear the full cost alone, insisting they split the bill equally.
She wrote:
“Currently on our third TV this year, courtesy of my son. For the first two, I didn’t stress much because my husband replaced them quickly. But this last one? Baba no gree o, we split the bill 50-50. Guess who’s now guarding the TV with her life?”
She went on to describe how cautious she has become since the incident.
“I am usually big on aesthetics but when they were mounting it, I told the artisan to take it very high. If the house is too quiet, I run to check what’s happening. If I hear any noise, I teleport there immediately. God no go shame us.”
Her humorous post quickly went viral, with parents flooding the comments section to share similar experiences with their own mischievous kids. Many praised her for finding humor in the situation despite the repeated losses.
