Even though the wife is older than her husband,there are times the wife would call her husband agbaya...why is it so?

God forbid dis...None of my women(old,new) ever called me dat,am so sure of dis...I no dull,I no be muma/maga but I spend wen its worth it...so why shuld I be labelled 'dat' or is dat wat ladies call u?? @Op

AGBA'YA mean7 'useless elder" she expects her man to really man-up regardless of his age.
Inability to do this leads to the use of this word.
