He advised them to stop constantly bragging and flashing their wealth and to instead take on a more modest and amiable manner.
He said, “Lagos women like to feel themselves and are proud. Most of you are runs girls.
"I know the meaning of runs girls now. Kobo kobo, ashewo,” Adesanya remarked, indicating that he is aware of the term of the word and its implications.
