Some fans online think this is wrong and that the actress is ignorant to call the girl her maid,saying house help would have
been more appropriate.What do you think?The other side of the argument is some saying the girl is a maid and shes doing her job and getting paid for it,so she has done nothing wrong.
Personally it's hard for me to take a stance here,if i could hear her voice i'll be able to determine if she uses the maid in a derogatory way.It's hard to tell when it's just words you are reading.One thing i do agree with though is her saying the girl was in her(Tonto's)Gucci Sandalz,there was no need for that..anyways,here are some of the debate Naija fans had online with the Naija actresses' use of the word.So is it wrong to use the term?Will you personally still use the term maid in this day and age or do you think it's a harmless word?
