Nigerian broadcaster Frank Edoho has sparked reactions online after speaking about how he handles conflict in relationships, insisting that he does not resort to physical violence against women.

According to him, his approach to disagreements is to withdraw communication rather than engage in confrontation, a method he described as a form of discipline when boundaries are crossed.

Edoho also strongly denied any allegations of domestic violence, stating that such claims are false and insulting to his character. He maintained that he has always been supportive of women and would never engage in abusive behaviour.

In his words, he said: “The best punishment I can give a woman is malice. I can stay in the same house and not talk to you if you cross the line… anyone who says I beat women is a big fool because I support women.”

His comments have since generated mixed reactions online, with some defending his stance while others argue that complete withdrawal in conflict situations can also be emotionally challenging in relationships.
