Did you spend any significant part of your childhood in Ondo State? I think this was a program on the old OSTV/OSRC. Watched it up to my early teens methinks.

I remember one Uncle Joe comedy movie that I watched back then. It had the following content.

Uncle Joe couldn't marry, he always had issues with girl friends.

One particular girl friend comes to mind. She went to the market bought meat worth , naira about 10pieces of meat and consumed everything while cooking the soup. When we was asked why, she replied,
"I used one to say it's ok, I used one to say it's alright, I used one to say it's ok,, na so the meat come finish, "

i also remember this song from the movie,

"Uncle Joe Joe Joe, na woman palavar, "

Re: Who Remembers Watching A Nigerian Comedy Called Uncle Joe? by jbak: 1:34pm On Oct 17, 2011
Yeah, I remember Uncle Joe and his point shoe and cowboy hat.
It was showing on LTV back then.
Infact I remember seeing the guy around my area back then in Ifako Ijaiye(most of the shooting was done there) with his 504.
Can't help but wonder where the guy is now, the programme would have gone under due to lack of sponsorship or smth.

Re: Who Remembers Watching A Nigerian Comedy Called Uncle Joe? by tpia5: 8:33am On Mar 10, 2012
can someone remind me when ostv/osrc was founded?

couldnt find much info online.

the national broadcasting corporation site says 1986 but i think it was before then.

i know it used to be ostv [not osrc] and the name later changed to osrc when the radio and tv stations were merged.
