Veteran Nollywood actor Bob-Manuel Udokwu has opened up about the struggles his children faced growing up under the weight of his fame. In a chat on WithChude, Bob revealed that his daughter experienced b¥llying at Queens College simply because she was his child.
Udokwu recalled that while she was in Junior Secondary School 1, senior students would single her out and p¥nish her “for just being (my daughter).” Reflecting on those times, he noted that although his daughter now laughs about it, but “it was not funny. She was in JSS 1.”
He explained that he and his wife intentionally kept their children in public schools to give them a normal upbringing and avoid distractions from his celebrity status.
“I did not want to be in their face so that I do not distract them. We agreed they were going to go to public school, because I also attended public schools,” he said.
