Simi, a musician from Nigeria, criticized Skitmakers, Nons Miraj, Ashmusy, and others for their inaccurate portrayals of African mothers.
They appeared in a skit where they were depicted as African mothers attending a restaurant while clothed in traditional clothing.
The video shows them walking into the restaurant wearing various traditional outfits, eating their food inhumanely, posing for pictures like normal African mothers, then packing all the utensils.
Simi criticized them for misrepresenting African mothers in the video, calling it disgusting.
Simi complained about the video on the microblogging site Twitter, now known as X, calling it a disaster and pointing out how they were behaving like dogs while eating, which infuriated her.
She added that she doesn’t know any mother who acts like that, as she admonished them to do better in their skits.
“That video about African moms where they looked a mess and we’re eating like dogs made me mad.
don’t know anybody’s mom that acts like that. Y’all get your jokes together”.
Taking to the comment section, while many concurred with her, others knocked her as they noted how it was only a skit.
