Toyin Abraham Defends Kneeling Greeting After Social Media Critique
Actress Toyin Abraham has hit back at an X user who called her kneeling to greet elders “eye service” and unnecessary. The remark followed a viral clip of her paying respects to businesswoman Shade Okoya at former Ogun State Governor Gbenga Daniel’s 70th birthday celebration. In the video, Toyin gracefully went down on both knees to salute Mrs Okoya and other dignitaries. The critic argued the gesture had become overdone, but Toyin made it clear she’ll continue the tradition no matter what. Her stand comes hot on the heels of a recent snub by colleague Funke Akindele at a movie premiere. Supporters are now debating respect for elders and the boundaries of public politeness.
