Lady publicly ridicules her father, accuses him of favoring only sons

A young Nigerian lady identified as Zahrah (@missbuttacup_) has publicly called out her father for what she described as a pattern of misogyny and favoritism towards male children.

In a series of emotional posts shared via her X (formerly Twitter) account, Zahrah recounted how her request for a laptop during her final year in university—while working on her thesis—was ignored by her father.

However, she was shocked to find out that he had recently purchased an expensive laptop for her younger brother, who is still in his second year.

“My father will reap the wickedness he has started. Asked this bastard for a laptop in my final year while I was writing my thesis, he aired me but my younger brother just got an expensive laptop in his second year in uni,” she wrote.

The visibly upset lady further accused her father of neglecting his responsibilities toward his daughters while allegedly favoring his sons.

“Btw this rat has refused to pay my sister’s school fees, but he is splurging on his male children. Anyway I know my money is for my sisters and no one else. My brothers can hustle for their money,” she added.

Zahrah concluded her posts by reaffirming her emotional disconnect from her father, saying:
“Born to beat up my father, forced to crash out on the internet.”

Zahrah’s tweets have since gone viral, drawing mixed reactions from users online.

A social media user @Kizzy_of_kwasu reacted, “Your father dodged a bullet by not buying you that laptop, imagine funding a thesis only for it to end in online curses and bitterness. The man saw your heart and chose peace. Sometimes parents invest where they see potential, not where they see venom. Heal.”

Another user @ogunmusi said, “Independent enough to put Multiple piercings on your Face but not independent enough to buy your own Laptop? He is even still paying your school Fees, He is a good man.”
