<p>Skit-making provides enormous economic benefits in Nigeria by serving as a source of employment for many people, particularly youth in recent times. Given its benefits, the comedy industry attracts many content creators and viewers on a regular basis, and the desire to influence traffic through toxic pranks seems to heighten human rights violations. The enforcement of these violations poses challenges to the police and has received marginal attention in the literature. To address this gap, this study raises the critical question of what happens to skit-making when the legal environment becomes porous. The data for the study were generated through online (social media) commentaries, personal interviews, and documentary evidence. Findings show that while advanced societies have robust mechanisms for addressing digital media criminalities, Nigeria is challenged in a number of ways, including securing public buy-in as critical agents of intelligence gathering for enforcing digital media–induced rights violations, given the porous nature of the country’s legal environment. This implies that people are becoming increasingly vulnerable to the antics of skit comedians, whose activities threaten national security.</p>
