Your Favorite Nigerian Bank Just Released a Children’s Day Video And We’re Honestly Ashamed

With Children’s Day around the corner (no, literally, it’s tomorrow), Nigerian brands have started advertising hard, as usual

Free recharge cards, weirdly-designed Twitter pictures, forced hashtags everywhere. Every. Single. Holiday.

Diamond Bank decided that they are not here to play and showed us that they’ve been ‘doing’ this Children’s Day thing SIIIINCE

….by posting this video showing us how they ‘celebrate’ Children’s Day

Bankers going down memory lane + it's Children's day celebrations tomorrow. #Back2School #beyondbanking #FlashbackFriday TGIF pic.twitter.com/ihBxmvmcSH

MY EYEEEEESSSSS!

There are so many things wrong here, but mercifully, people on Twitter have already dissected this. Take a deep breath. Ready?

First, the pronunciation of hippopotamus:

Secondly, the fact that the video is just….wtf

I meannnnn

It's amazing how staffs of Diamond Bank don't even see how cringe worthy that video is. My friend who works in Diamond is posting more on IG

And the ‘school uniforms to work’ Diamond Bank culture is a gift that keeps giving…unfortunately. Sigh.

We love Diamond Bank, but this particular practice of wearing staff uniforms and reciting nursery school rhymes has to go.

I mean, it’s already tough working at a Nigerian bank
