Trending Hashtags: #ShaggiVsTesla #OkoAiye2025 #LagosElectricWahala
Date: July 2025
Location: Lekki Phase 1, Lagos
Broda Shaggi had finally done it. After years of skits, collaborations, and sold-out shows across Nigeria and beyond, the comedy kingpin decided it was time to upgrade his lifestyle. No more danfo jokes from the sidelines — it was time to pull up in something that screamed "global superstar."
Enter the Tesla Model Z Naija Edition — the supposed future of electric cars in Africa. Imported from the U.S., the car had been "specially customized" by a questionable tech company in Ikeja to suit "Nigerian roads, traffic, and spiritual climate." That last part should have raised a red flag, but Shaggi was blinded by excitement.
On delivery day, he came out in full Yoruba royal glory: starched white agbada, matching fila, and designer shades. Cameras rolled as fans gathered in front of his Lekki mansion.
He stood proudly beside the sleek, white Tesla and shouted on Instagram Live:
“Ladies and gentlemen, Tesla wey go sabi dodge pothole don land o! Make una welcome my new babe: Oko Aiye 2025!”
One agbero from the crowd tapped the bonnet and muttered, “This car no get engine. E no get exhaust. This na pure jazz.” Another person whispered, “Hope say NEPA go fit charge this one o.”
But Shaggi didn’t care. He entered the car like a prince entering a spaceship. The moment he sat down, the madness began.
A soft female voice came from the speakers:
“Ẹ kú àtàárọ̀ o, Broda Shaggi. Ṣe ẹ fẹ lọ Mile 12 tàbí Computer Village?”
He froze.
“Wait first... Tesla dey speak Yoruba?”
The dealer, who had been grinning at the side, nodded proudly.
“Yes sir! We remove Siri. This one na Sikiratu. Full Yoruba operating system. She sabi Sango, Ayelala, and pepper dem gang.”
Shaggi started sweating under his agbada.
Still, curiosity won. He started the journey to Victoria Island. All was going well until he reached Third Mainland Bridge.
Suddenly, the car beeped and announced:
“⚠️ Warning! Spiritual energy detected on this route. Recalculating to avoid village people.”
Shaggi looked around.
“Which kind over-sabi car be this? I just dey go Island! I no go coven!”
But the Tesla refused to move forward. Instead, it turned around — on its own — and began driving back toward the mainland.
Then the car added:
“GPS sense negative vibes from that girl wey text you ‘I miss you’ yesterday. You no dey learn. I cannot come and die!”
Shaggi screamed from the passenger seat, “Tesla, face front! Mind your business!!”
Back at his Lekki house, the car parked itself and locked all the doors. The dashboard lit up with a final message:
“This vehicle is currently fasting. Movement resumes after 6PM. Tap Holy Water to override.”
By evening, a viral video emerged online: Broda Shaggi, shirtless and sweating, pouring sachet water on the car and shouting, “Holy Ghost fire!” Pastor Odumeje had even joined via Zoom, commanding, “You spiritual car, lose your grip!!”
Postscript:
Three days later, Broda Shaggi sold the Tesla on Jiji for half price and returned to his trusty 2010 Toyota Camry.
“At least if Camry spoil, na mechanic go fix am. No be deliverance and blood of Jesus I go dey use.”
Reactions on Twitter (now X):
- @_iamdre: “Na Yoruba Siri get sense pass our leaders.”
- @fine_boy_lekki: “Shaggi don buy car wey dey reject bad vibes. My own just dey manage AC.”
- @osheyman_007: “2025 cars now dey fast and pray. By 2026 dem go dey vote.
