Share documentary link to your assertion, make I read because everybody get im own version of oral history.

From Mbaise area, I think it is only Ogbor Ihitteafoukwu (Ahiazu Mbaise) I know we are so very dialectically close to because they border Obowo, Ihitte, Nsu and we all have trade in the same markets, historically.

It’s disrespectful for young people to call me by name – Shaffy Bello

LOL. I admire I carrage.

emoboy4u:
I doubt this because the culture of the corporate world is to address people by their first name without any prefix. So I doubt an executive of a top bank would struggle with that.

Like I asked earlier, what percentage of UBA workers in Nigeria would call Tony Elumelu by his first name, Tony?

When you lose your culture and morals, you end up with words as yours.

She has said nothing wrong. We are gradually losing our culture to copy western practice whereas some of these westerners are gradually imbibing our culture. Respect and values are key.

With due respect to you, can young lady or guy call your mother by her first name?

She is 60 year of age on 8th October this year and she deserve respect.

Shaffy Bello, a wonderful actress. I enjoy her movies.

The "age is just a number" crew will soon arrive in 3, 2, 1...


Anyways, since youngies make money at an early age these days, and the parents that are supposed to mentor them, look up to them for handouts, the resultant effect will be truancy.


Also, when a young girl start riding her father's age mates and/or her elder brother's age mates d!cks, they begin to feel fly.

If a gal is riding a 60 years old Senator like Yamaha power bike, she'll begin to see those at that age range as her mate and also equate herself to a Senator.

Do you know the meaning of the word "truant"?

Mbaise is big brother to the Etitis. Normally, you're supposed to be addressing me as Dede.

I love this lady eh. I first saw her in that Boris movie, can't recall the name.

Of what use is culture if it doesn't bring progress. We should have continued the killing of twins and child marriages since they were part of our culture.

State that it's a preference and be done with it but don't come and hide behind culture. Is culture divine, isn't it man-made?

I think too much respect (or reverence) for elders is why we are in such a mess in this country. You see old people misbehaving and you look the other way because they are old.

I don't think there's anything wrong with referring to a person by their name but if it's their preference that I don't, fine. It isn't a dearth of respect on my part.

Apt! She's done the right thing since most of them were not brought up well. This is a strict mother and professional.

I honestly think that the head of any young one who doesn't call her own mother by name but calling her by name should be examined. This is an accomplished elder in the world of theatre.

She's exceptionally brilliant and talented! I am not surprised that she's this modest yet strict.

It's only stupid people that fight for respect and recognition.. Successful and popular people have become an icon that got respect in loads without the normal cultural respect.. Why do you think we don't call buhari, Tinubu, abacha, Jesus, prophet Muhammed and all successful people withbrepsctful name but instead call them by their first nameonly stupid and unaccomplished people fight for respect..

Name no be insult oh, African man too like titles

ObabiOlorunosi:
According respect to elderly people is strange to some people some call their parents by name. Anyways, respect is sacrosanct as far as Yorubas are concerned.

And yet we call Tinubu, sanwoolu, fayose, onbasanjo by their first name.. Or na brother or papa u dey call them...

Love me jeje love me tender, U no be my boss Na only boss people dey respect that way... Go some country sef they will still call their bosses by name. Shaffy go rest abeg

How will you feel if someone causally calls your mother by her name because they're in the same industry. I remember when the likes of Funke Akindele, Kate Henshaw etc were still upcoming, they referred to older actors as uncle this aunty that. This new generation of actors are so stupid, they think they're all mates because they all meet in set.

It goes both ways. Maybe you haven’t earned the ma’am too.

With the way Nigeria is being run by our “elders”, it’s obvious age isn’t a perquisite for respect or knowledge.

If you want respect; earn it. My two cent. It’s not like you’re their mum or feeding any of the individuals in question.

Will she have the same opinion if it was her younger employer or some younger lady she wants a favor calling her by her name? Definitely not!

M0M0SHIKI:
Name no be insult oh, African man too like titles

What have you done to earn the respect?!

I am old.

Like for real! Are people still using the age card to seek respect in this country where it’s obvious that the older generation are more lost than the younger ones.

Look at how they’ve run the country.

Other than being old(which is no one’s business), whatelse has she done to earn the respect she’s seeking? As if it’s not her name she’s being called.

How many of those people she dey pay salary? How many she dey feed?

If no be your parents and God instructed us to respect them; African elders deserve no iota of respect.

They do the worst and demand for the best treatments.

Like I asked earlier, what percentage of UBA workers in Nigeria would call Tony Elumelu by his first name, Tony?

I'm neither his staff or friend, so if I see him today, I'll call him Mr. Elumelu because that's his name. Calling him Tony wouldn't be right even for his bank staff because that's not the official way to address people who you share no personal relationship with. "SIR" and "Ma'am" are there to be used accordingly when conversing directly.

Coworkers calling themselves by first names is merely to foster a degree of cordiality. Unless he explicitly asked to be called Tony by every staffer, there's no basis for cordiality with members of staff who don't have any direct dealings with him.
