Mojisola Olaoye says respect is part of the African culture

In a chat with Legit.ng, Mojisola Olaoye said African culture does not give room for disrespect.

She said:

"African culture does not permit the younger ones to disrespect their elders. Whether you are Igbo, Yoruba, or Hausa, they all have unique ways of showing regard to people older than them. The Yorubas are better at it. All those 'hi', and 'hello' are alien to our culture. If you want to greet an elderly person, you do it properly. It starts from the family, children should be taught how to show respect to people from their homes. Parents should instill the right values in their children."

Not stopping here, she said she discipline disrespectful children and can't tolerate such behavior around her.
