Distributed by FilmOne Entertainment, the one-hour comedy special was shot in Lagos, Nigeria late last year.

SLK is known for his viral hilarious videos often featuring a character called ‘Boda Wasiu’, where he sits in a car and makes funny calls to famous people. He uses comedy to address trending social issues.

He joins the growing list of Nigerian comedians like Kenny Blaq whose comedy specials have been acquired by Netflix.
