She captioned the video saying, “Dame Patience Jonathan
“You are loved, Thank you.”
The video sparked mixed reactions from netizens.
One commenter, said, “I thought they said. Igbo’s never bow down to people in greeting.”
samuelsunking said, “I don’t understand why someone scállywâg are concerned on how she chooses to bend to greet her, firstly she’s her elder, secondary she’s her fellow igbo sister, so the phrase that ” igbo doesn’t bow for anyone ” doesn’t work here. P.s: she genuflected/ kneeled with one knee not bowing. T for thanks.
