Trevor Noah & the Nigerians

Young Nigerians on the internet are mad at Trevor Noah for comparing Trump to a Nigerian Prince.

They were not mad at him when he supported the notion of Buhari as “Jibril of Sudan” (Nnamdi Kanu releases “6 scientific” facts to prove Buhari is …dailypost.ng › News).

He and Fareed Zakaria were the only immigrants who voiced the speculation.

Trevor, I sympathise with his knowledge of Nigerians is forged from his childhood relationship Hillbrow (Hillbrow — Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org › wiki › Hillbrow) and of course his friendships are derived from there.

Not even the fact that David Oyelowo as an authentic Nigerian Prince would convince him otherwise.

When he finally grows up and realises that Nigerian Princes come from 253 tribes it may open up his mind to other Nigerians. For now he works and associates with Nigerians of the same genre.

But we still love him and wish him well. There is a group of us grandmothers who pray for greater success and protection for him. We need him to inspire our grandchildren.

He should go home and get married. He should learn from Idris Elba. Even the white South Africans girls would have a greater cultural understanding of his background.

Leave the blonds only. Recall messed up Tiger Woods was fancying blonds. Now he lives a more serene life with a woman who looks more like his mother.

Besides with American women, is all or nothin. See what Harry is going through. His granduncle too went through the same.

Finally remember your grandmother is not going to leave forever. You don’t want to spend the rest of your life wondering what she would have thought of your children.

And you, David Kibuka same applies.

But what do I know, I am only a grandmother.

May the Almighty protect you lot form crazy gun wielding Americans.
