You and your fellow CEOs say we, the Gen Y, are old-school and unemployable. Oya, enjoy your Gen Z employees who will call you by your first names without the respect and formalities you’re accustomed to.
You prefer those who studied abroad, believing they are more qualified because they acquired “foreign knowledge and morals,” while dismissing your fellow countrymen who were raised and educated within our traditional system of discipline and respect.
Now, the same Gen Z you hired are calling you by your names, and suddenly, you don’t like it. You’re even attributing it to “Oyibo culture.”
Tony Elumelu, why na? 😅
Sometimes, the values we overlook while chasing modernity are the very values we later wish we had preserved.
