Ayra Starr, the popular Nigerian singer, has faced criticism online after a viral video showed her greeting veteran singer King Sunny Ade at an event.
In the video, Ayra Starr is seen on her bended knees while greeting a woman but maintains a standing position when greeting King Sunny Ade, passing through Burna Boy’s mother in the process.
The video has sparked backlash, with some expressing disappointment in Ayra Starr’s perceived lack of respect. Comparisons have been drawn to Wizkid, who is said to have prostrated to greet King Sunny Ade when they met years ago. The incident has ignited discussions about cultural norms and expectations, especially regarding greetings and respect in Nigerian society.
