Ikorodu Bois is a Nigerian comedy group who found fame in mimicking viral Hollywood movie trailers and epic pictures. The group consist of three siblings; Babatunde Sanni (21), Muiz Sanni (15), Malik Sanni (10), and their cousin; Fawas Aina (13). Who reside in ikorodu, a town in Lagos, Nigeria. The three younger boys partake in the acting while the elder (Babatunde) is always behind the camera, filming.
Their journey began in 2017 when Babatunde Sanni (the eldest of the boys) decided to start sharing their household drama to the world via social media.
Babatunde said in an interview;
"Our is like a comedy house,
we play too much. I felt
like, 'this thing we are
doing in our house, why
don't we start putting it
online?"
The kids make funny versions of multi-million dollar movie trailers, using common household equipments in the neighborhood of ikorodu, a suburb in Lagos. The most popular of these equipments is a wheelbarrow to replicate luxurious cars.
Ikorodu Bois have won the heart of many, both in Africa and outside Africa. They were invited by RUCCO BROTHERS (Hollywood producer), to the premiere of the movie; EXTRACTION 2, after they made a mimicry of it trailer.
