Nigerian singer, Ayra Starr is being dragged online for shaking the veteran juju musician, King Sunny Ade amongst other notable dignitaries.
The video was shared to Twitter by user, @gemyoruba, where he called her out for her actions.
In the video, she could be seen getting introduced to the men who were seated close to Burna Boy’s mother.
Based on the Yoruba culture and owing to their honorary status, she was supposed to kneel while greeting.
However, the young artiste stood and shook their hands in the form of greetings. This enraged so many Netizens who believed she was disrespectful and not a true daughter of the soil.
UnkleAyo said:
“Excuse me for one moment. The man in suit is not who I think it is. Please tell me it’s not who I think it is. Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, @ayrastarr you stretched your hands to shake that man? Omo 2002? Egbami.”
ayurexars stated:
“She Dey shake KSA , that man might be older than her father.”
smoke253 noted:
“KSA was even more respectful than @ayrastarr in this video which to me is a shame to these GenZ children ????????????.”
Capolutiti reacted:
“Whether she knows it’s KSA sitting or not, she’s mannerless. This Africa not Obodo Oyinbo land. No need to to white wash it.”
