Adedotun, a Nigerian business developer believes Nigerians are not using the word CEO which stands for Chief Executive Officer correctly.
She explained that ladies who sell wigs and clothes on Whatsapp are traders and shouldn’t be labeled as CEOs.
Her tweets read
”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.”
