Nigerians can be emotionally funny……. How do you compare an interview to a conference where you actually talking to your boss ? That’s her boss !!!

His body language shows he didn’t like it but since it’s their norm he let it go

Key word “graduate trainee” she isn’t even a full on staff yet and she’s referring to her overall boss by his first name?

The person that dug up this thing needs to go back and study the situations. They are two different situations. What do you mean by double standard???

You guys are not being realistic, he’s in an interview and you don’t expect him to correct her while they’re recording while in the other girls case, he’s her to be boss and mentor.

Can some Nigerians stop being emotional about this, the lady was wrong. There are certain positions you naturally show respect to. Calling the Chairman by his first name without even adding “Mr.” was simply inappropriate.

Noooooo! This is not a double standard thing. The other was an “interviewer” in a foreign country! He is home now and doesn’t want to be addressed with his first name by a subordinate staff! This shouldn’t be an issue mehn🤦🏾‍♀️

To be more professional and not emotional here 1, It's his name 2, He has title (I don't mean igbo title but professional) 3, He has the right to tell you what you should acknowledge him as. so I see no big deal with what and how he wants to be called.✌️

The lady in this interview is the host, she invited him. The other lady is his employee, it’s professional not to call him by his first name

apart from the scenarios being in different place ,This is an interview where he was invited not an event where he hosted with a graduate trainee who probably just graduated and calling her chairman by his name
