• The comedian recounts how a simple radio joke about the differences in farting habits between gay and straight individuals led to his dismissal
• Unaware that his boss was a member of the LGBTQ community, Dr Ofweneke's joke cost him his job

Renowned comedian and radio personality Sande Bush, popularly known as Dr Ofweneke has narrated how he once lost his job.

In an interview with YouTuber Oga Obinna, Ofweneke said a mere joke cost him his job.

According to the funnyman, he made a joke on the radio that didn't sit well with his boss.

Why was Dr Ofweneke fired?

The joke involved a contrast between the farts of gay people and straight people.

The dating show host made different sounds using his mouth while demonstrating how people from the two categories fart.

Unbeknownst to him, his boss was a member of the LGBTQ community.

The joke angered the boss, and they fired Ofweneke.

"I was fired for redundancy, but later on, I came to realise it's because I made a gay joke on the radio. One of the bosses was playing for the other side (LGBTQ). The joke was how gay people fart, compared to how straight people fart. What worsened the situation was that my co-presenter couldn't stop laughing. The more he laughed the more he was making it worse," he said.

Dr Ofweneke says he's never seen his parents argue

In a separate story, Dr Ofweneke cautioned married couples to stop arguing or settling disputes in front of their children.

The comedian revealed that, despite being in his 30s, he has never witnessed his parents fight or angrily talk to each other.

He shared a video on his TikTok page addressing parents and highlighting the consequences of exposing their issues to their kids.

Ofweneke advised parents to always go to the bedroom when aggrieved and solve issues where kids cannot see or hear them.

He argued that some kids have ended up being violent or aggressive because that is what they are exposed to at home.
