  • The Trailer For This Series About Nigerian Immigrants Is The Funniest Thing You’ll See All Week

    The comedy series titled ‘African Booty Scratcher’ is about how Nigerian immigrant parents, Tunde and Ann, try to teach their son, Ayo, Nigerian values.

    It was created by filmmaker and screenwriter, Damilare Sonoiki, one of the writers of Emmy nominated series, Blackish.

    Damilare chose the slur “African Booty Scratcher” commonly used by African Americans to describe African immigrants.

    Ayo’s parents remind us of our Jollof rice-loving, prayer warrior parents who scolded us for getting anything that wasn’t an A.

    You can watch the hilarious trailer here.

  • These Kids From An American TV Show Yabbed Nigerians!
    You’d have thought that the world would have moved on and forgotten about the 419 scammers that gave Nigeria a bad name. But we came across something that shows otherwise.
    In an episode of an American TV show called Blackish, the kids made reference to Nigeria. The siblings tell their brother that the girl he’s been chatting with isn’t genuine.

    The girl says, “At best this is a middle-aged Nigerian who wants your money or kidney.”

    In another shot, his other sister says, “Kirsten is actually a 40-year old Nigerian man living in an empty swimming pool in Lagos.”
