Naka on Wood

Homesick

Nijah! Christmas in Nigeria would be so much fun right now! I miss it. Going from house to house, sampling everyone’s cooking; managing to squeeze a few Naira (our currency) out of the adults (guess I couldn’t do that one anymore); watching the Mmonwu or Masquerade* pass by:

Masquerade!

Talking with my Aunts, Uncles, Cousins and whoever late into the night; Going to the dozens of weddings and so much more. Fun times. Can’t wait to save up enough money to visit!

*Basically men in costumes that can represent a number of things from spirits, gods, ancestors or just plain silliness.

Richard Pryor once said, "Search for the truth and the funny will come." That's what I model my comedy after. I tell the story of my life as a mixed up son of Nigerian immigrants whose spent good chunks of his childhood in America and Nigeria and try to make sense of it to myself and the world. I search for the truth in my life and in society and most of all I dig for the funny. Check out some of my comedy in the youtube vids a few blocks down on this page. _______________________________
