George Mambezi, the Kenyan man who appeared in a viral video beating his son, has reacted to criticisms he received online for his action.
Mambezi could be seen in the video below slapping his son for failing Maths and English despite the $21K he spent on his education.
He has now responded to the criticisms from people who slammed him for disciplining his son who failed all his courses except Music which he scored A in.
He wrote on Facebook: ”I know your page is the most happening and the most popular in Zambia at the moment so I would like to address this issue on your platform for maximum audience.
First of all Bambino is my son and I have the right to discipline him, am a staunch Christian and an advocate for human rights.”
”In as much as I can slap my son, it’s all because of love and me wanting the best for him.
I cannot kill him or feed him snakes if he requested for fish. I grew up in the village and am one of the few people that were privileged to acquire a sound education and I would want to pass that legacy to the next generation.”
”The Bible clearly says spare the rod spoil the child in Proverbs 13:24. therefore if you think I was wrong , go to the relevant authorities and process the adoption papers for him.”
”Let’s see if you will be happy seeing him walk in the streets singing for K2 like Fly Jay and Lawino after spending $21,000 on tuition.”
