Omobaabirin Adedotun, a Nigerian business developer has opined that Nigerians abuse the word, Chief Executive Officer as a result of its careless usage.
Adedotun said ladies who sell wigs and clothes on Whatsapp group shouldn’t be referred to as Chief Executive but as Traders.
Her tweets;
”Let me say this again. CEO means Chief Executive Officer. For there to be a CHIEF amongst the Officers. It means there must be other Officers. If you are selling Gowns on WhatsApp. You are a Trader. That’s what you are.
If you are selling Wigs, shoes and the likes on WhatsApp. You are a Trader. That’s what you are. It doesnt take anything from your Enterprenuership Journey but common, we are abusing the word CEO.”
