While others where rocking it at The Hip hop Festival in the sun, a young group from the Ngoma Yorira were making history. The Ngoma Yorira Theatre Ensemble gave us an comedy insight on the new goat currency that has been trending on social media. We had the chance to catch the group in action and this is what they had to say about the skits:
Why that concept and what are you trying to convey?
The background of the #goatcurrency is in the Sunday mail publication where the Minister Dokora was giving an option to parents to consider livestock as form of paying fees. After that, there were many misconception about the modalities of these transactions. So we as artists capitalized on that and derived humor from the confusion and even added a skit #Goatcurrency. The skit implies jokingly that we can even buy from shops using goats as a currency.
Our thoughts are that we can derive humor on policies that initially cause confusion to the people before things normalize.
Do not miss out, check out the following skits and tell us what you think…
