What Is Wrong With Asking Our Elders "How Are You?" ?

"How are you?" may sound polite to some group of people or culture but not to the African culture especially Nigeria. 

Do you dare tell an elderly man or woman "How are you?" without getting this evil look and opened case in the community? 

I was having this discussion with a friend and we started taking about the above topic then he told me;

Just imagine you saw a kid and call his name and the next comment he made was " Hey brother, how are you?" 

Well, e sound somehow sha.... 

Question is does it actually show disrespect or are we Nigerians just too respect conscious? Please don't just Read and Go, Kindly Use the Share button Below, Thanks
