The
effect of any joke is to evoke laughter which is a practice embraced
worldwide. The idea of comedy is to create humour out of tragedy. Our

Housemates by @aycomedian was just to entertain without any form of
malice. So I wonder why we go out to make issues out of none issues when
we are bedeviled with various challenges that need attention.
