We do things a little different right here
If you don’t like it, we don’t care.
This why pride and tribe sounds the same

julybaba:
What’s your take on this

Is it right or wrong for the trainee to kneel before collecting her certificate?

Let’s hear it 🤔

It depends on individual. We show appreciation differently

A trainee can kneel for you today and still collect your customer tomorrow

Nah.

Yorubas are known for this.
Their culture.
Igbos don't do such.

Why talk to your teacher with respect too?. All courtesy should be outlawed

its tradition

HOW MANY NIGERIAN CITIZEN READY TO LEARN WORK, THEY PREFER TO BE LIABILITY TO THOSE WHO LIVE ON EXPERIENCE AND SALARY

DDIA:
Foolish governor.

With foolish power, foolish influence, foolish privileges, foolish allowances. Pride leaves many people at the bottom of life. Humble yourself bro.

But one youth who claims he's an ordained pastor can tell a whole congregation full of people old enough to be his grandparents and Great grandparents to go down on their knees and same will be done even while they are wearing wrappers and Agbadas Abi ?

Nonsense wokeness , if you aren't ready to kneel , when you finish learning the Skill , stop going to work with the person, go and open your own shop and start practicing,,, after all you learnt the skill already...

Not to insult anyone, but if you see a problem with this, then there is something fundamentally wrong with you. This new generation with their an obsession with foreign customs and standards.. It's appalling really.

The desire to demonise any of our traditions, customs and norms is just shameful. Especially in the same era when young people in other countries are emancipating themselves from cultural damage done by the Western world. I weep for my country.

IboHausaYoruba:
Hmmn! I think this has to do with norms and tradition. Nothing wrong doing it.

Tradition is often some ancient m0ron’s opinion.

Randal:
It's a stupid practice

But it's good foe you wife to call her pastor Daddy and kneel down but can't do the same for her husband at home

This is a very silly question,we are in Africa,for God's sake!!!!
It's an African thing. You do it once and that's that,damm it!

Qatar2022:
It's part of appreciation and respect

Na this kind of people I dey avoid In real life. I can do and undo you I swear . And all those who like this crap are the problem we have in this country

I ain't Igbo but I think they do...
trainees "doing freedom" do it as a show of final respect...

The kneeling is secondary.

The training many of them get is not up to standard. That is the problem.

tolumizzy:
So trainee should disrespect their boss enh.....if you can kneel for your pastor...whats bad if you kneel b4 your boss just to collect your certificate!!!....karma is real though

..but the trainee paid for the training...it was not free training

If the trainee paid for the training it's not right to kneel...the boss did not give the trainee the training for free

AbuTwins:
This is haram even if some Muslims still do it.

It is totally wrong!
Be respectful and courteous but no bending, bowing, prostration and kneeling!

All those positions are solely for the worship of Chukwu Okike Abiama!

Extremist sighted

But is the kneeling compulsory?

Exceed15:

It’s called respect in Nigeria. I don't know why, but they said it's our culture, and some people might see you as proud or uncultured if you don't do it.

Anyway, culture or no culture, I think that is still better than a university lecturer asking students to kneel down in the classroom or even beating them as punishment, and nothing will happen.

thesicilian:
Respect is reciprocal. How one chooses to show his or her gratitude is personal. [b]If one person kneels to collect certificate and the next one decides not to, it's no big deal. [/b]Where it now becomes an issue is if everyone is forced - physically or psychologically - to kneel just because the first person chose to do so.

At the bolded. It's mostly if the first knee, Al will follow suit. That's life for you, it's moved by propaganda.

Why should a trainee kneel before collecting his cert. The cert is he's and he deserves it, a trainee shouldn't even bend down not to talk of kneeling..

Leave them with their kneeling. They like it like that. I remember something that happened many years(about 25) back when I was younger. There was one lady my mom trained in tailoring... back then, they used to call my mom ajebutter tailor because she had a very standard tailoring showroom and doesn't stress her apprentices. Anyway, after the lady's 2yrs, my mom just printed her certificate and handed to her, she said she didn't want to stress her with all the 'bring this and bring that' protocols. My mum learned from a ghana man that didn't make her do all those wahala so she was trying to do the same for her apprentice. Omo... The lady came with her mother to come and beg o... she said that stress is highly necessary and in fact, that picture of her wearing graduation gown and kneeling to collect certificate is very essential as that is what qualifies her to be a tailor and she will also hang it in her own shop my mom had to agree and told her to go and bring or plan whatever she likes. Omo, last last, it turned to a big party with many guests and kneeling and prayers. So op, leave that matter biko.

Lordburna2:
This is absolute rubbish...if my ward try this and I notice that he or she was coerced to do that...I will Bleep the trainer up big time. Black folks be frowning at slavery but are blackishly wicked to the soul.

nedekid:
Our rubbish culture of over submission.
The most one should do as a sign if respect is a bow.

Namaster:
It's senseless.

It's the manifestation of the desperate need of Nigerians to oppress ANYONE below them.

These ones moral compass don lost.

It is very glaring that the above quoted people disrespect and disregard their elders at home, them done lost already...if you chose to have disregard for your culture, tradition and norm let others that are well brought up morally do it in peace.

Is she kneeling with your knees?

Mental slavery is the worst form of captivity.


You can continue kneeling down after all it's a free world.
