When Tiwa Savage was recently pictured on her knees greeting Sir Shina Peters at an event , it generated mixed reactions .
However , while speaking with Sunday Scoop, Sir Shina Peters said Tiwa Savage did the right thing and he appreciated her gesture towards him . He said , “ This is what I always preach . Tiwa Savage showed that she is very humble and respectful and that is how it is supposed to be . When I meet people who are older than me , I also bow before them. I wasn ’ t surprised she did what she did . Whenever we meet at concerts or shows , that is how she greets me. In life , whatever you do , you will reap it later . Her children and people who came after her will celebrate and respect her too. ”
According to the veteran musician, he also met Tonto Dikeh , Teni and BBNaija’ s Cee – C, saying they all knelt down to greet him . He added , “ I am enjoying now because of what I have done in the past and I will continue to pray for all them for showing me respect . When some of these younger ones make money , they lack respect .
“ I don ’ t demand anyone to kneel down for me , but if you feel I deserve it, I am okay with it. I do that to people too and it is part of our culture . If you look at the photo well , you will see that I quickly lifted her up . I was also not comfortable with keeping her on the ground for too long. ”
