Amazon Prime Video has unveiled 10 contenders for the unscripted comedy show, Last One Laughing (LOL) Naija.
The show is being viewed on the streaming platform from Friday, 14th July.
To be hosted by Bright Okpocha (well known as Basketmouth), the 10 talented contenders for the show are Okey Bakkasi, Senator, I Go Save, Sabinus, Taaoma, Dat Warri Girl, Buchi, Kiekie, Gandoki and Acapella.
The concept, according to Prime Video is to have 10 content creators in an apartment for six hours and try to outwit one another to laugh with jokes until it will remain the last person that would not laugh. That person would then win N40 million but to be donated to a charity of his or her choice.
In a recent media screening, Head of Originals, Africa and Middle East at Prime Video, Ned Mitchell reiterated the uniqueness of the streaming platform saying that the show is a big deal for comedy, especially comedy in Nigeria and that Prime Video is committed to assisting Nigerian comedians realise their dreams.
In addition, Head of Originals, Nigeria, Prime Video, Wangi Mba-Uzoukwu said: “It is the first unscripted show as it is the first of its kind in Nigeria and we intend to keep it that way. We implore everyone across the globe to watch the show”.
