Nigerian comedian and content creator Shank Comics has sparked widespread online discussion after making a humorous yet provocative comparison between men from Nigeria and the UK.

In a post that quickly went viral, Shank joked that Nigerian men tend to spend more freely in clubs, while their UK counterparts are more reserved, often sharing a single bottle among several friends.

He stated, “We Nigerian boys are richer than UK boys. Naija boys buy bottles in the club, but UK boys do 10 guys to one bottle.”

Shank also questioned why UK women frequently visit Nigeria during holiday seasons, suggesting that their trips are more about receiving money than spending it.

The post immediately ignited debates on social media, with fans split on whether his remarks were harmless humor or an unfair stereotype.

Some Nigerians found the joke relatable, claiming UK men are naturally more frugal, while others criticized Shank for generalizing, pointing out that spending habits vary depending on local living costs and lifestyles.

One fan commented, “Shank no lie jare. Naija boys like to show off; UK boys just dey calculate money.” Another added, “It’s not about being stingy. Life in the UK is expensive; nobody will buy bottles recklessly.”

True to form, Shank’s comedic take has once again captured online attention, proving that even lighthearted jokes in Nigeria can quickly spark lively debates.
