It's nice to have a source of amusement that is pure, and wholesome, and which tries to be educational and inspiring, where the author doesn't seem to be absolutely batshit insane but also talks funny
 
That kneeling pose that a lot of women in his cartoons does must be copied from some advert? It looks very familiar.

Nigeria isn't known for it's quality mental health system. I'd expect a "You need Jesus/Allah" moment.
 
:offtopic: Why does the BBC bother with copying the news into Pidgin? Most of it is just badly-spelt English, the rest appears to be slang. It's like 'translating' the news into Glaswegian, or the kinda gibberish WE WUZ KANGZ spout (the latter could probably use a decent translation, tbh). Do people in UgoJesse's part of de world really not understand regular English?

I guess there's an education thing. Maybe the level of education in Pidgin areas is so poor that Pidgin is all they can read. You could say the same for the WE WUZ KANGZ types, though - they seem to hate whitey's schooling so much that it's cool to be uneducated.

Just, why Pidgin?

(Can we have a Pidgin Kiwi Farms? Translating something like Brianna Wu would be fucking hilarious)
