Yorubas sabi respect elders well well.

It's only in Yorubaland a conductor will be calling you Sir and still be insulting you.

It is called Diplomacy! The Yoruba do not do gra gra, neither do they wail marginalisation or play the victim at any time. They play national politics without applying threat and coercion or inviting the wrath of Impotent Amadioha on perceived enemies both sides of the Niger, North and south. That's why it's so easy to win it for Obasanjo in 1999 and it's the same way the Jagaban of Borgu will win it in 2023. What the goat wails about is the the same thing the sheep sees and moves on. There's no question about it, Yoruba be Oga Na Master!

He did it like a soldier than a grandpa

PointZerom:


To prostrate to greet your elders isn't a sign of humility but a respect to your culture which says you must do so.
So many men/women will prostrate to greet you and end up making love secretly with your wife or husband.

On point.

Aside from prostrating, even people greet normally, pass by you gleefully only to find their ways into your home for one yeye thing.

NwaMamaIwota:
everybody dey bow for elders
we do that here in Onitsha.
as onitsha person I don't shake my elders with one hand.
so respect for elders is everywhere it has nothing to do about tribe.
no dey famzy Yorubas.
hahahahaha

It's not a bow, it's prostration.

muykem:
Good!! Culture must be respected.

So why can’t Obasanjo respect the culture of being grateful to people who are beneficial to you, like Atiku for allowing him a second term? Is that not how Fashola is grateful and loyal to Tinubu for letting him go for a second term after serious begging

Eboes hate the great man but Olodumare pass them

Knowing how, or striving, to act respectfully shouldn't be mistaken and equated to being respectful and having self-respect/grit.

In the words of Wole Soyinka,"If I only kneel to God why should I prostrate to you?"

All na lie - You dey dobale for rain or for road. Just add Sir to the end of every sentence.

Where and when did Wole Soyinka say this. Be man enough and provide the link. No abuse, please. God hates an abusive tongue.

This is exactly what Tinubu should be doing now rather than trying nature. Resting and playing with his grandchildren

Good home training.. before he grows up and starts saying "what's up grand pops"?
