Stand-up comedian and actor Bovi has opened up about the complicated relationship with his late father, attributing their strained bond to a pattern of negative energy and generational curse in their family.

In a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo, Bovi shared that his father passed down this negativity but he chose to break the cycle.

Bovi revealed that he had forgiven his father before he died in February 2025.

Despite their difficult relationship, Bovi said he took care of his father during his illness from 2021, showing love and support with siblings.

He said: ?What made the relationship with my late father difficult is what they call family patterns or what the church calls ?generational curses?.

?My father gave me what he had, and what he had was a lot of negative energy. That was given to him as well. I have chosen to be the stop.

?When I used to tell that story, I was used to playing the victim, talking about the loveless relationship. I was speaking from a very bitter place.

?But long before he passed, I had already forgiven him. He was sick from 2021 till he passed; I and my siblings were taking care of him. And I was taking care of him with all the love. I didn?t struggle to take care of him.? (The Nation)
