Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject Cultural Studies - Miscellaneous, grade: 95, , course: Comparative Literature, language: English, abstract: This study seeks to delve into how some Nigerian comedians subtly critique the Nigerian political scene. Hence, the study aims to see how these artistic works have been a tool of youth activism with a special reference to the #EndSars protest. There are obvious shreds of evidence that point to the fact that comedy is a powerful and untapped storytelling genre to raise awareness, incite action to human rights and social justice, change attitudes, especially amongst the youths. Despite this significance, comedy is underexplored.
