The ‘Shit Nigerians Say’ video

The ‘Shit Nigerians Say’ video

EDITED: I promised myself we won’t post any of the “Shit People Say” videos–the best ones I’ve seen: Shit Girls Say; Shit Sri Lankan Mothers Say and Shit White Girls Say … To Black Girls. Others are too stupid, too clever or outlandish; there’s even a “Shit Birds Say.” The best takedown of the trend is here.  Anyway, yesterday I went looking to see if there any done by Africans. There’s of course a few online, but not much to like, though I found the “Shit Nigerians Say” video posted on Youtube, embedded above, quite funny.
