A localised version of YouTube for Nigeria officially launched yesterday and they’ve released an ad presenting the service to Nigerians. The video stars rapper Jesse Jags appearing in a kid’s dream. The kid slept off while researching an assignment on “Deconstructing the existential perspective and evolution of contemporary Nigerian Politics, Culture and Entertainment”.

Jesse Jags makes a quick joke about how Nobody tests him[Get it?] and then explains how he heads to YouTube.com.ng to find inspiration. They both port into an advanced touchscreen-based world where different Nigerian videos from Tafawa Balewa speaking to Music videos and Oliver de Coque performances are highlighted. The kid’s sister then wakes him up and asks if he’s done with the assignment. He replies in the negative saying “I know where to find my inspiration”.

Here’s the Video
