  • Unpacking Detty December and IJGB Culture

    Unpacking Detty December and IJGB Culture
    Jan 15 2025

    In this special crossover episode, OUT OF THE BOX Podcast joins THE NIGERIAN SCAM Podcast to dissect the phenomenon of IJGBs (I Just Got Backs). We discuss the idea behind IJGB culture: do returning Nigerians seek a “premium dose” of elitism after a year abroad navigating a proletariat reality?


    We also explore the broader societal implications of the infamous “Detty December” — its impact on local tourism, economic stimulation, and cultural identity.
