Bovi puts up son for ‘sale’
Earlier, Bovi’s son broke their TV, and his father did not find it funny as he questioned the child in a video.
The comedian asked if he was the one who broke the TV, wondering why he was crying after carrying out the act.
Playfully putting the kid up for sale online to whoever is interested, he revealed that it is the third TV he has broken within a year.
