In other news, Reno Omokri has fired back at Nigerians criticizing the Super Falcons for kneeling to greet President Bola Tinubu and First Lady Remi Tinubu during their visit to Aso Rock after their WAFCON 2024 victory.

Omokri defended the gesture as a sign of respect, citing a photo of former UK Prime Minister Theresa May curtsying to Prince William despite being 25 years older.

He argued that kneeling or bowing to greet leaders and elders does not take away one’s dignity but reflects proper culture and values.

Read his post below…

‘’This is a photo of the then British Prime Minister, Theresa May, kneeling to greet Prince William on Thursday, August 9, 2018, when the Prince of Wales was still third in line to the throne. With the death of Queen Elizabeth II, He is now second in line. By age she is twenty five years older than Prince William.

The act of kneeling or bowing down to greet the Head of State of a country and worthy elders does not strip you of your dignity. It only shows that you are a cultured person.

Chief Olusegun Obasanjo is the longest-serving Nigerian leader, yet he prostrates flat to greet the Ooni of Ife and the Olu of Warri. Biodun Oyebanji is the Governor of Ekiti. Nevertheless, he prostrated flat on his stomach to greet Chief Afe Babalola. Wizkid did the same for King Sunny Ade.

Are you better than them? No wonder you are where you are!

Do not let them gaslight you. The Super Falcons acted in a most dignified manner by kneeling to greet President Bola Tinubu. Only uncultured and uncouth people consider such a civilised and virtuous action as undignified.”
