An upcoming comedian, known as MC Freedom, got more than he bargained for when a prank went horribly wrong in Ibadan.
In the skit, he dressed as a native doctor and said he needed to use a young lady who was a virgin for ritual purposes.
All efforts by him and his camera crew to convince those around him that it was a prank fell on deaf ears as the market women and passers-by pounced on him.
He was beaten mercilessly and received deep cuts inflicted by a machete as the crowd descend on him and he almost got lynched in the process.
