Friday’s humor: Batch Samba’s blanket prayer
BS, short for Batch Samba. This character is very hilarious. Early in the mornings when his uncle wakes everyone up for prayers, he would still be cuddled underneath thick blankets while lying on bed. He would pretend he was praying. Underneath his bed, he would recite the surahs aloud, going ‘ruku’ and ‘sujud’ till his prayers completes underneath his blanket. No physical ‘ruku’ or ‘sujud.’ On this Friday, he ran out of luck when his uncle walked into his room, after becoming suspicious of that rather dragging sleepy voice from Batch Samba. When his strict uncle walked into the room, Batch was still reciting the big ‘ayas’ underneath the warm blanket, being massaged by Iblis (the cursed devil.) Uncle has lifted that left hand, up in the skies and down on his cheek. With a high jump from that sponge, they struggled towards the door. Batch finally ran helter skelter, knowing his long time deal has now been uncovered.

Hi
Since you are a Fula barindinyo, you might know the Batchi title is just like "Modikebba" in Mandinka. In ours, it is mostly a gossip term where you use the title to address a character as in mockery or praise.
In the character pictured as Batchi, count me for the first Batchi. In the Fulbe nomenclature itself, Samba (Batch) is normally the second born son in the family.
The only lesson in it probably, the prayer underneath the blanket is truly empty.
I intend to furnish a lot of these "clean" jokes here. Some of them are applicable to life situations and others might not. Others might caricature characters coincidentally and most of them are just of the ordinally, from hear-say traditional story-telling or my own craft. It is part of my tribute to my culture and the roots where I come from. It shows the power of our cultures. It shows levels of societal understanding of many affairs.
The jaws' movement will keep you young. Smiles will keep you young. Jokes are a unifying factor. Interpretations should be open, not in a manner to hurt any ones' feelings, but rather the beneficial derivative lessons showing occurrence of humor, despite the fact that it can be non fun at times.
Have new year to all the Muslim umma.
The joke is I endorsed you (Suntou) to be Gambia's VP, and Micheal Scales (The Briton) will be a flagbearer.
Best of regards,
Yj
