Steve Harvey Halts Show After Hearing Man’s Unusual Name, But When Dad Pipes Up From Crowd Everyone Dies Laughing.

A group of Nigerian siblings just took on Family Feud… and it’s one family Steve Harvey won’t soon forget!

First, they stopped Steve in his tracks when Steve realized one of the brothers is named Obu Obu. He stops the entire show to question the brother on this, and when he hears the brother’s middle name he’s truly speechless. But when Dad speaks up from the crowd, everyone dies laughing!

It turns out, it’s actually a common practice in Nigerian culture to give children the same first and last name as names have much more meaning there, than in English- speaking countries. Either way, it made for a hilarious moment, but that wasn’t even the funniest part!

After the whole “Obu Obu” debacle is sorted out, Steve is ready to start the show. But the Obu’s have to surprise him once again! This time, it’s by bursting into an epic song!

It’s easy to see that there’s just something different about this family, something special.

Inquiring minds wanted to know whether or not the Obu’s made it to the end, and unfortunately they didn’t win the show… but they are certainly one of the most memorable families the show has seen!
