Trevor Noah mocks Nigeria Minister of Agriculture, Audu Ogbeh over pizza comment
We all know that Trevor Noah is one of the few very spontaneous comedians around so it didn’t come as a surprise when he jumped on the comments made by Audu Ogbeh’s about pizza and made fun of it.
The stand-up comedian and host of ‘ The Daily Show ‘ shared a video of the comments made by the Minister of Agriculture, Audu Ogbeh where he revealed that some Nigerians usually order for pizza from London, a statement which has been found outrageous and at the same time
embarrassing.
Well, Trevor Noah in his spontaneous nature jumped on it and made fun of it on his show which actually got everyone laughing.
Back home in Nigeria, not so many people find this statement funny and for some, it felt like the minister exaggerated the whole thing. It is not clear if there are actually Nigerians who order for pizza from London daily but it certainly sounds ridiculous.

In Ogbeh’s words, “Do you know, Sir, that there are Nigerians who use their cell phones to import pizza from London; they buy in London and bring it on British Airways in the morning to pick up at the airport. It is a very annoying situation and we have to move a lot faster in cutting down some of these things,” he said.
Audu Ogbeh indeed has sparked off a conversation and wonder how far the government will go to curb the excesses of how dependent we are as a country on imported goods.
