Businessman Obinna Iyiegbu, popularly known as Obi Cubana, has drawn mixed reactions online after publicly correcting his son during his 50th birthday celebration in Abuja.
The lavish event, held over the weekend, was graced by several celebrities, politicians and high-profile guests, including the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.
A viral clip from the event shows Obi Cubana standing beside his seated son as Peter Obi approached to greet them.
After exchanging pleasantries with the businessman, the politician turned to greet the young boy, who remained seated.
Displeased by the lack of courtesy, Obi Cubana instructed his son to stand up and greet the elder properly — a move that was met with applause online.
Social media users praised the billionaire for instilling discipline.
One user wrote, “These are the values we should teach our kids at home.”
Another commented, “Was he really going to shake an elder while sitting? That’s unacceptable.”
“If na to dance now, dem no teach am before him learn,” another quipped.
One more added, “Gen Z no send anybody.”
