Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode, ace Nigerian media personality and show host, also known as Do2dtun, explains why many Nigerians lie about their age.
Age has been a topic of discussion in the industry on and off. However, it is clear that it sprung again after BBNaija’s Chichi’s ’23rd’ birthday celebration yesterday, January 11th.
Do2tun takes to Twitter to explain why many Nigerians would rather lie about their ages than tell the truth.
“Aging is a crime in Nigeria. “you don dey old o” “Agbaya” “you are old; stop dressing like this” Some of you have limited anyone growing up to think it’s bad to be older.
We are too ageist & that’s why a few have grown bad attributes of lying about their age”,
