Actress and philanthropist, Tonto Dikeh, has expressed her displeasure over a certain trend in Nigeria she would not allow her son to engage in.
Tonto in a post shared on her Instagram page stated that she will never allow her son to call anyone other than family members Uncle or Aunty simple because it is disrespectful.
She wrote: “Would you rather your kids call strangers Mr/Mister, Mrs/Ma’am than aunty or uncle.
“I grew up in the age where everybody is called uncle and aunty whether related to us or not. I really have found this very offensive over the years and even actually embraced it to as I call TOTAL strangers Names like MAMA, AUNTY, UNCLE ETC. I MEAN, I EVEN CALLED MY SCHOOL TEACHERS, BIBLE SCHOOL TEACHERS (Uncle and aunty).

“Mums, what are your thought? I’m just been a momster or I have mums feeling the same way.”
