Hello Comedy Fam! 👋
Welcome to the another round of our Weekly Spotlight, where we shine a big, bright light on the funniest submissions from the community!
This spotlight is our way of celebrating those comedy gems that made us snort, giggle, choke on our coffee, or literally LOL in public (yes, we’ve all been there). Like I said, the spotlight is to showcase the most funny post for the week, it might come from our weekly prompt, or random post in the community, so come make the most funny posts you can.
Some weeks, we might only have one spotlight post. Other weeks, we might have ten! It all depends on how funny the submissions are, not kinda funny or I smiled internally funny, but bust-a-gut, tears-down-your-face funny, Yes that kind of funny gets the spotlight.
So, if your post didn’t make it this week, don’t sweat it. Come back stronger, funnier, and even more ridiculous next time. The spotlight isn’t for everyone, it’s earned, not given. 😎

Me (slow, wicked smile): So… all of you think the land belongs to you, eh? … Do you know whose name was used to register it at the ministry?
Everyone freezes. Music changes to Nollywood suspense beats. My cousin gasps dramatically, and my aunt starts fanning herself with her wrapper.
I bring out a folded paper from behind my seat. Close-up shot of everyone’s shocked faces.
Uncle: Chineke! Don’t tell me… is you?.

In as much as I don't like load but have you seen their dressing room?
Like it is a room organized with different outfits, shoes and bags kept separately.
In different colors, sizes and brands.
I am not forgetting all the gold and silver jewelries.
Hmmm, my life don stew.

I tell my parents that this is the last blind date favor I'm doing them. I still believe in soulmates, even though nikama nyota yangu ilizima (it's like my star dimmed). On the way to the blind date, the Bollywood drama kicks in. Time slows down to almost a stop, a text notification buzzes, and just as I lower my head to check my phone, my soulmate crosses my path. He too is distracted. Something on the other side of the street caught his eyes. Not just a random guy; someone I once had a spark with, someone who lit something deep in my heart before we lost touch. A love song swells, Bollywood dancers appear in the background, scarves swirling, and just like that, I miss him. If I'd only looked up, I'd have cancelled the date and we'd be on our way to happily-ever-after.

***Guess what? By the time I turned around, I had seen over two hundred backup singers, including Khan and his mother (Mama Tunde), one of my enemies. But then, when it comes to dancing, we forget about fights and focus. All the backup dancers, I don't know how, but they already knew the dancing steps. They were all dressed in the normal colorful Indian sari; most of them were holding stirring sticks as microphones, while some had buckets in their hands as drums. The entire kitchen was lit and had turned into a stage, and guess what, I was both the lead singer and dancer, and guess the wordings of the song..."Gimme light, gimme light, I have an interview, gimme light, don't let the enemy rejoice over me, gimme light****
It was an amazing week, keep those funny post coming
