Talk is cheap The internet is not a real place…just don’t let some persons who just have access to the internet without processing their thoughts properly lead you astray
HacheNoire: Because it’s only in Nigeria gridlock happens!
You Mr lots would just come online to start spewing gibberish!
The set who believe flooding, traffic jams and accidents only happens in Nigeria.
Without you finding out the root cause, you just into conclusion that our great country is hell fire and under a curse.
Cease and desist from cursing our great country. You are not compelled to be a citizen of the country. Seek better ones if you fed up.
Gridlock for days and your delusional and short sighted excuse is it doesn’t happen only in Nigeria?
People like you are the reasons Umahi keeps gesticulating when asked about the coastal road.
A serving minister and arrogantly calls himself an Engineer…you have existing roads that should be fixed urgently but decides to construct another road that would cost much more.
Point the sense in it because I still don’t get your take on this subject matter In 2026 we are still talking about roads our leaders should be ashamed of themselves.
Franking: I always avoid articles about this boy even before his wedding...I don't even know what content he creates or anything..... I'm however confused as to why he keeps making the news......who is he? Why is the press always rushing to talk about him? Before they say it's jealousy, is this thug newsworthy? If yes, why?
nlfpmod: Nigerian TikToker and content creator, Peller, revealed in a video that an unknown person reported him to the EFCC after guests sprayed money on the floor at his recent wedding to fellow creator Jarvis.
EFCC officials invited him for questioning over potential concerns about the displayed funds, but cleared him after reviewing footage showing Peller repeatedly cautioning attendees against throwing money on the ground.
Peller expressed frustration at the reporter's actions, describing it as wickedness and urging people to focus on earning their own money rather than targeting others' success.
“Human beings are wicked. Someone tagged EFCC to arrest me. They invited me after my wedding, but said they won’t take my case serious cause I cautioned people not to spray money on the floor. Stop hating on rich people and the ones trying to survive. Go get money”🤦💔
I worked with not one or two corporate organizations, including foreign owned organizations before being on my own.
Besides, Tony Elumelu is not her colleague, he is the Chairman and owner of the organization where she works so she has no right to call him by his first name, in Nigeria? This is Nigeria Mr man!!
What if she was not corrected would you have still called her out?
In corporate organizations I have worked too even superiors during training prefer you address them by their first name.
cyberbro: All of una no get work. The girl who called her Tony was corrected and she took to correction. People are discussing useless issues on social media, no priorities but to trend!
I am telling you Just blind argument here and there on how she has no respect and all…some are just looking for traffic on their page
AnonPoet: There is a particular kind of exhaustion that settles over a certain generation of Nigerians whenever a video like this one makes the rounds. It is the exhaustion of watching, once again, the slow erosion of something that used to be non-negotiable: respect for elders, expressed plainly, through the words we choose to call them. At the UBA Graduate Management Accelerated Programme, a young graduating participant stood to ask Tony Elumelu, former Group Chairman of the bank, a question. She opened with his first name. He asked her to repeat herself. Then he corrected her, gently but unmistakably, telling her she would address him as Mr Elumelu, T.O.E, or Chairman, and that he did not “subscribe to that kind of Oyinbo life.”
The clip has since travelled across X, gathering commentary the way these things do, some of it sympathetic to the young lady, much of it agreeing with Elumelu. I fall firmly in the latter camp, and I do not think that makes me old-fashioned. I think it makes me someone who understands where we come from.
Let us be honest about what happened here. A man who has built one of the continent’s most recognisable financial institutions, who has mentored thousands through platforms like the one that brought this young woman into a room with him in the first place, was addressed by his first name, casually, as though they were mates. That is not a small slip. In our world, in the world most of us were raised in, elders are not first-name terrain. You do not need to be told this. You are supposed to arrive already knowing it, because somebody, somewhere along the way, was meant to have taught you.
TONY ELUI have lived enough places to know that this instinct is not some parochial Nigerian eccentricity that the wider world has outgrown. When I lived in France, nobody addressed a stranger, or anyone outside an established relationship, by their first name. It was Monsieur or Madame, full stop, until familiarity or age made room for something else. In America, students did not call their professors by their given names either. It was Dr this or Professor that, and even in the workplace, it often took an explicit invitation from someone senior before a first name became permissible. I remember waiting a long while before I called my own supervisor, a woman considerably older and more senior than me, by her first name, and only because she asked me to. The West that gets invoked so casually as the excuse for informality actually has its own careful architecture of Mister, Missus, and Miss. Nobody there is walking around addressing their bosses like old classmates either. So the framing of formality as somehow foreign, and casualness as somehow modern, does not hold up to scrutiny anywhere.
What troubles me is not really the young woman. To her credit, once corrected, she absorbed it, adjusted, and pressed on with her question, which takes a certain composure in front of a room and a camera. That resilience is worth acknowledging. What troubles me is the broader drift she is a symptom of, not the cause of, the slow flattening of hierarchy and honorific in the name of relatability, where familiarity is mistaken for confidence and casualness for boldness.
Values exist for a reason. They are not decorative. The instinct to say Mister, Chairman, Ma, or Sir to someone who has earned seniority through age or position is not servility, it is structure, and structure is what allows a society to function with some measure of order and mutual regard. When we discard it in the name of being modern or being seen as unbothered by titles, we are not liberating anyone. We are simply forgetting something that took generations to build.
Tony Elumelu did not owe anyone an apology for wanting to be called by his name and title, correctly. If anything, he did that young woman and everyone watching a favour, delivered publicly, yes, but delivered with restraint. Home training is not something you are meant to receive live on stage in your twenties. It is meant to arrive long before you find yourself standing in front of a chairman.
escortafrik: Thank you very much, it’s really saddening to see her person being pulled down because of a ‘mistake, but anyways everyone is a content creator these days so I guess that’s what it is for them
You are not far from the truth It is more of generating revenue from traffic than actual correction.
Donzion77: The just concluded election in Osun State may have opened the eyes of the electorates that it is actually not a sin to collect your money and rice and still vote against you
With this development now, what else will these politicians use to induce the people to vote for them in 2027?
Rice politics is the order of the day Rice wey no go pass one day na e people Dey sell their future for.
illicit: Will she call her father by his first name?
This is Africa its just like your student calling you by name even if you are mates
Its nothing extraordinary it's just respect
Abi respect no dey dictionary again?
Who is she, what has she achieved?
I will even suspend her if I could
Lol Una comments Dey muzz person… You would suspended her if you could So what if with all those noises TOE decides to employ her and even get to know her much more.
Take it easy life is not that difficult…it is a corporate world and what she did is no disrespect Elumelu corrected her doesn’t mean he is angry as you are right now.
By now, I’m sure we must have all seen the viral video of a young UBA graduate trainee addressing Tony Elumelu by his first name.
The young lady greeted him as “Tony,” and he immediately corrected her, asking her to address him as “Mr Elumelu” or “TOE.” She quickly corrected herself, but you could see that she felt embarrassed and uncomfortable at that moment.
Since then, the internet has gone into an uproar, with people sharing different opinions about what happened. Some people have called her rude, some have said she lacks home training, while others have questioned her emotional intelligence.
But I looked at this situation from a slightly different perspective, and I found myself falling into that small percentage of people who saw it differently.
What is clear to me is that this is not a matter of lack of home training.
Was it a mistake? Yes.
Could she have read the room better and understood that addressing the chairman of an organisation by his first name might not have been appropriate in that setting? Absolutely.
The corporate world comes with its own rules and expectations. Understanding how to communicate with people, especially in formal environments, is part of professional growth.
I have a sister who has worked in the banking sector for over 15 years, and one thing she has always made clear is that there are certain structures and etiquettes that exist within the industry. You are to address everybody by their first name ! Yes even to the Oga pata pata
Banking organisations encourage a more relaxed environment where leaders allow employees to call them by their first names because it creates a sense of approachability, in this case it is clear to see she was simply following the banking culture!
So please sheath your swords.
A mistake was made, but a mistake does not define a person.
We need to be careful about how quickly we judge young people based on one moment. There is a difference between correcting someone and tearing them down. There is a difference between teaching professionalism and publicly humiliating someone.
The lesson here should be about awareness, professionalism, and learning ,not about attacking her character.
Let us not allow one moment, one mistake, or one uncomfortable encounter to define the future of a young person who is just beginning her career journey.
Every professional has had moments where they got something wrong, were corrected, and had to learn from the experience. Growth comes from those moments.
Let this be a lesson for her and for many young professionals entering the workplace: observe, understand the culture around you, and learn the unwritten rules that come with professionalism.
But let us also extend grace.
We should be building young people, not breaking them.
We should correct, guide, and allow people the opportunity to grow.
Because at the end of the day, one mistake should not become the story of someone’s entire career.
I hate the fact that everyone is coming at her with that”she is rude” “she has no respect” “GenZ bla bla bla”
In this part of the world we don’t know how to correct people without getting all aggressive with it especially with that kill and burn everything down mentality we have here.
I see nothing wrong in what she did because in most corporate environment they prefer you just address her by her first name and since she was corrected by TOE it is just to put her in place because if he never did nobody would have reacted.
She may be nervous She may be scared She may not be spontaneous with her thoughts at that point in time so people should let her be and face their lives.
