Meet The Resident Presidents
Rajan sits in on the latest recording of The Resident Presidents, an outrageous comedy sketch depicting stereotypical African heads of state.
The Resident Presidents tend to leave listeners open-mouthed with shock or on the floor laughing. The two fictional African leaders, Olumshambles and Kibarkingmad impart their skewed vision of the world every Friday on Focus on Africa. Recently they’ve covered subjects such as child labour, police brutality and life expectancy; they certainly don’t shy away from controversy.
This week on Over To You Rajan meets the team behind this divisive feature to learn more about where the comedy madness comes from and puts listener questions to the producer, Jenny Horrocks.
