IYABO OJO

We are Yoruba and it’s in our culture,you are not expected to call somebody who is older than you by name,even at the home front.You can’t suddenly wakeup and decide to call your father by name.

It’s in the ANTP code as well,’respect’.But if you decide to call me by name,it’s your choice.

I actually saw on the internet that we were attacking each other spiritually,and I was like,I don’t think the situation has degenerated to that level.

So,I called her(Lizzy Anjorin) and I made peace with her,just to let her know that I don’t have anything against her anymore,that peace should reign and she should know that I don’t hate or think bad about her.

She responded well and we ended the so-called fight like the press called it(laughs).Even though we never really had any physical confrontation

Smart move
MEE | 5/1/2012 8:39:11 PM |
That indeed was a very smart move from Iyabo's end, trust MEE. She dosen't want to be tagged with bad names incase something terrible happens(God forbids) to the other person. MEE don't blame you; aye kii pe so eeyan l'oruko. Good gesture, omo odo agba.
We cal by 1st name
Nneoma | 5/1/2012 11:33:42 PM |
And we are igbos, we cal by 1st name as far as no insult is meant. Brother n Aunty does not necesrily mean respect to us, so we dnt read meanings into it. As 4 d peacefl step taken by u, its quite commendable. Keep it up nd weldone!!!.

I watched a recent program on AM yoruba last wkend - IDAN IRAWO. Lizzy said a lot about her and Iyabo issues. Although I think Lizzy said too much but this AUNTY IYABO is too too proud. Whats the big deal in Aunty, she does not know how old Lizzy is, Lizzy as a dauta who is 13 years....
