It has been said already "NATIVE". I guess you all will agree wiv me that sock isn't native.so it shuldnt av bin worn @ all. Indeed embarssin

Unknown said...

This is an absolute fashion blunder, although common among some people these days. Its akin to wearing a faze-cap on 'buba and sokoto'! The president is known to have a good dress sense always, but this oversight is unacceptable.

Unknown said...

There is absolutely nothing wrong. If he wore a pam slippers or sandal, then there will be no need for stockings, but for this dressing, he looks fab and on point.

Is this an issue that a Nigerian should bothered about? Instead of asking about the high rate of unemployment, insecurity,and corruptions etc, and what this guy noticed was presidents wearing socks with native wear, some people are really confused in that Nigeria

THERE IS NOTHING BAD IN WEARING SOCKS ON NATIVE. IT IS NOT IN ANY DICTIONARY OR ANY FASHION BOOK. SOME NATIVE ATTIRE TODAY ARE CORPORATE SUCH AS NIGER DELTA OUTFITS. AND THESE ARE DIFFERENT FROM OYO/OGBOMOSO AGBADA NATIVES OF 17TH CENTURY

THERE IS NOTHING WRONG.

@abati1990,socks is made to absorb sweat inside the shoe, so na only English dress person dey sweat? wake up bros, you are still leaving in the past

Anonymous said...

It is not about the native wear Mr man, it is about the shoes. I wear socks with such shoes regardless of native or English attire.
No one wants sweaty smelly shoes.

Abi what is the purpose of wearing socks?

Unknown said...

It would have been much more better if it were a black socks!!

...And no there's nothing wrong with wearing socks on native,it's just that the colour of the socks he used was pretty bad!!!

Fashion fail. Call the Fashion Police. Plus the heat will make it worse. If (big if) you insist on committing this fashion faux pas make sure your trousers are long enough to never show the socks.

DaShaun said...

There is nothing wrong with wearing native with socks. It is a general rule that this is not allowed. However, You should be comfortable with what you wear. I cant wear shoes without socks because my feet sweat a lot. As such, I wear socks with native but I keep it very low i.e ankle level

BlessingOzoemena said...

yea Linda,no police will stop you and no lastma will harass you but it doesn't make any fashion sense wearing socks on native.infact native wear should go on sandals,sneakers or casual shoes which require no socks.

The old rule would say don't wear socks on traditional wears. The new rule is do whatever makes you comfortable, so wearing socks isn't as faux pas as that commentator might think. The same way that you may decide not to wear socks with formal wears.

Nothing wrong in the socks.
People wear all manner of crazy stuffs and no complain why must it be GEJ ehhhhhhhhhh.

before you condemn him, you will first the important of wearing socks. What do you know, who are you to talk about who dressed the president, a whole president of a country.

Anonymous said...

wearing socking is by choice, so do you tell people that do not wear socks on suits. the way you people insult this man, not only the president of a country, but someone who is old enough to be your father will determine how your children insult you. Try and respect older people and stop talking rubbish.

FYI also, the correct expression is "@ Linda, your use of English..." or "your command of English..." or "Your grammar/diction..." and not "your English....".
You can't personalise it because, We speak or use a language, we don't OWN it. So, instead of saying your English, it's more appropriate to say "Your command /use of...."

And who made that rule? No be human being? After now una go see half-naked women/girls and sagging foolish boys showing their dirty boxers for road and that will be ok. Foolish insecure copy cats. He wore socks and he is comfortable with it so buzz off !

THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING BAD IN SOCKS ON NATIVE. HABA

I UNDERSTAND THE YORUBA'S DONT WEAR IT AS THEY SEE SOCKS AS FOREIGN AND SHOULD NOT GO WITH NATIVE. BUT MOST OF SOUTH - EAST AND SOUTH- SOUTH WEAR IT. WE SEE IT AS A MEANS OF PROTECTION FOR YOUR FEET AND SHOULD BE WORN ON ALL SHOES EXCLUDING SANDALS.
