Eucharia Anunobi, a renowned Nollywood actress and evangelist, is utilizing her platform to discuss the importance of proper DM etiquette.
- Anunobi addressed a common pattern in Nigerians initiating conversations in direct messages, particularly on social media, in an Instagram video.
“I don’t get it. I really don’t get it. Why would you come to someone’s DM and write hi? Hello, Beauty. For crying out loud, you think we all have time to waste?”
Speaking with her usual eloquence and intensity, the actress emphasized that people need to be intentional and respectful of others’ time. In a fast-paced world, she argued, there’s little patience for meaningless back-and-forths.
“Oh, so we should start chit-chatting. Hey, then I write hello, then you say ‘How are you?’ That’s fine. Come on, now. Man, shoot your shot, write your intentions, write where you’re going to, where you’re coming from, come on.”
