Two brothers in Enugu allegedly climbed onto the roof of their father’s house, refusing to come down until he gave them a financial settlement.

The incident was shared on social media platform X (formerly Twitter) by user @ChuksEricE.

According to the post, the brothers also threatened to set the house on fire if their demands were not met.

A video circulating online shows residents stepping in to rescue the brothers. In the footage, a man is seen climbing a ladder to reach one of them on the rooftop, persuading him to come down.

A pickup truck, accompanied by security personnel, was also on-site to transport the brothers away from the scene. The swift response from the community helped defuse the situation.

@LUCKYpaskalo : This is a pure bad upbringing. If they were trained well they won’t be messing themselves up. I pity their parents who is facing the shame. Most times ppl chase after money that they forget to train their children well. Providing food &shelter doesn’t equate good upbringing.

@flourish007: I hold the father responsible for raising children who have grown up with a sense of entitlement and no work ethic. The real question is, what values do they plan to pass on to their own children? If they choose to destroy their future through reckless behaviour, they’ll have no one to blame when it all catches up with them. While many are grinding daily and working hard to make ends meet, these ones sit comfortably, complaining and demanding handouts as if the world owes them something.

@henroo01 : Arrest and Send them to Psychiatric hospital they’ll spend not less than 1 year, Prison follow if any mess up once they come out… Never let them have access to you as a father again… Life is simple, we emotionally make it harder for ourselves.

@u_okocha : When you have two goats as SONS! 🤣🤣🤣 But chere o, Their father should consult his forefathers to know his commitment or their commitment against the land if he’s not a police officer or a Nigerian politician!🫣🫣 Because it’s 💔💔💔.

@D_kingsevidence: The father should settle them immediately please before they hurt themselves 😔.

@NnamdiFans: They should be ashamed of themselves. They should use that energy to go get a career and hustle like their father did.
