Speaking at the premier of the show, Director, Brands and Experience, Etisalat Nigeria, Enitan Denloye reiterated Etisalat’s commitment to discoverin­g and nurturing talents. Denloye said, “We have decided to showcase the level of talent and wisdom that our Nigerian children have with this TV show. The series is also to enable the kids lend their voices to the society, so that the adults can learn from them and back them up rightly.”

Executive Producer of the TV show, Chichi Nwoko recommende­d the show to the family, describing it as a must-watch. Nwoko added, “Kids Say the Darndest thing is a show that everyone can relate with. It is an opportunit­y for adults to view the world from the kids’ perspectiv­es, so we can better appreciate them. We casted the kids based on their wittiness in speaking their minds. The show is not rehearsed because it works best when kids say the darndest things.”

Present at the premier were some of the kids featured in the first episode and their parents. One of the parents of the kids, Theresa Enejo commended Etisalat for sponsoring the show, adding that, the telecom has again proved its innovative­ness by bringing the Nigerian version of the show to the Nigerian audience.
