Peter Okoye is not joking when he says he is tenaciously against domestic violence, and now the singer has taken his resolution up a notch by preparing his only daughter Aliona for the harsh world.
Writing on his Instagram today, the P-Square star revealed that he has registered the 4-year-old for martial arts classes. “Oya let me start training my own for all those women beaters,” said the singer and dancer, and he included the hashtags, “#Aliona#saynotodomesticviolence”

Many people have commended the singer for taking the proactive steps to empowering his daughter. However, it also emphasises the salient point about the disturbing rate of gender violence in the country, and the victims are often women.
Only days ago, Kenyan socialite Huddah Monroe branded Nigerian men violent. “I don’t ever want to get married. And if I do, may God forbid not to a Naija man,” she said on her SnapChat, adding, “These domestic violence stories and their polygamous ways is a NO to me.”
So, are Nigerian men too violent?
Here’s what folks think of Peter’s measures:
- tibitoye: “@peterpsquare She won’t even come across them in Jesus name. She will marry one of the very kind and caring ones because they still exist but rare though. I am blessed with one of them.“
- ria329: “@peterpsquare Muuuch more respect for you now that I know this of you A man should never ever put his hands on a woman. She is someone’s sister, daughter… etc…you wouldn’t want anyone to lay their hands on the women of your family don’t do it to the next. Also makes you less of a man. Peter much love and God bless you and yours amor“
- moore.05: “M uneasy with the caption, but i get what he means…God forbid she is ever exposed to such! Taking self-defence classes is a good move…violence can come from anywhere afterall.“
What do you think?
