Shoot Your Shot With Sense – Actress Eucharia Anunobi Advises Nigerians On DM Etiquette

Eucharia Anunobi, a seasoned actress and evangelist in Nollywood, is taking the opportunity to discuss direct message etiquette.

In a video on Instagram, she passionately highlighted a common and frustrating way that Nigerians often begin conversations in DMs, especially on social media.

"I don’t get it. I really don’t get it. Why would you come to someone’s DM and write hi? Hello, Beauty. For crying out loud, you think we all have time to waste?”

With her signature poise and commanding tone, Anunobi expressed irritation over people who slide into her DMs with vague greetings and no clear direction. According to her, there’s no time for idle chatter in a world that moves so fast.

“Oh, so we should start chit-chatting. Hey, then I write hello, then you say ‘How are you?’ That’s fine. Come on, now. Man, shoot your shot, write your intentions, write where you’re going to, where you’re coming from, come on.”

“Don’t you know what’s called grabbing your opportunity? Obviously, common sense is not common.”
