Nigerian Dad Fights Son for Having Dread Haircut, Tries to Cut it off with Scissors in Video, Many React

• A Nigerian dad went bananas and got into a physical altercation with his son after the young man barbed dread
• The angry man questioned his son over the haircut he considered irresponsible and knocked him for it
• Both father and son struggled as the Nigerian dad armed with scissors attempted to shave off his son's hair

For barbing dread, a Nigerian dad thought it necessary to teach his grown-up son a lesson not to be forgotten in a hurry.

The Nigerian dad first confronted the young man, using cuss words on him for keeping a haircut he deems irresponsible for a promising young man.

He then took scissors and made a move to shave the haircut, but faced resistance from his son who kept dodging his father's attempts respectfully.

Father and son went physical

In a short video reposted by Elufowora Eluyemi Lateef on Facebook, the father could be seen in a physical struggle with the young man.

Nigerian mum celebrates after son finally cut his dreadlocks

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a Nigerian mum had gone wild with celebration after her son finally cut ff his dreadlocks.

The woman first giggled then burst into screams as she appreciated God for ''setting her son free from the covenant of dreadlocks.''

While the son on the other hand wore a sheepish smile, the woman went on to lay flat on the floor as she prayed for the son.

It appeared she had always wanted him to do away with the dreadlocks and couldn't believe her eyes when he finally heeded.
