It is either the child bears some resemblance to the father (mother's husband) or the grandpa (the grand mother's husband) or he bears his name.

lt is more out of fondness and it is not restricted to the male child, when l watch yoruba movies, l see some mothers calling their daughters "lya oko mi" (my mother in-law).l do not see anything wrong with mothers/grandmothersusing such pet names.

That ain't right or have such pet names given the impression that they desire an incestous relationship?

what rubbish? Is this all u can think of?
Mothers calling their male child "my husband" is not in their pervert mind.
It only happens when the husband is late, itz a sort of closeness, a bond and the relationship shared between the mother and son.

This phrase is commonly said by Yoruba old women and I see nothing wrong with that calling a male child "my husband"(oko mi)

"oko mi"(my husband) is use as a form of a bond, respect, to appreciate, a liking etc.

It doesn't mean you are their hubby haba.

it is something like a figurative, metaphorical speech of word.

I guess most of them dont mean it literally. Its just a way of boosting the child's ego.
A way to make the child feel important and responsible to his immediate environment.
Nothing much to it.
