Listen, I love African parent memes. Thanks to the Internet, our generation can expose our shared sufferings and we can now laugh about them Just Google "African parents" and you will see picture memes, YouTube video, Tumblr blogs, Vine videos of African kids (mostly Nigerian, but other countries too, even East African kids) imitating their parents, and you will understand perfectly, and laugh with tears in your eyes. I showed my mom one such video, and she didn't even get it LMAO. She was like, yeah, ok, where's the joke? Because to her, that behavior is perfectly normal lol 4 Likes |

Funny. They want you to study that course they did or due to circumstances failed to do and you are a bastard if you disagree. You must finish the meal before eating the meat. No reason, you sha must not touch the meat till the meal is finished. Having a friend from the opposite sex is now allowed. You are promiscuous ( not all case) if you do. Your parents always come first in class in all the exams. If you do something bad, na your mama you resemble. When you do something good, You are the son of your father. 5 Likes |
