TMNFTH is Thelma Buabeng’s own online comedy format. »As a black actor in Germany I’ve had to listen to a lot of crap«, said Buabeng in an interview in Der Spiegel in 2018. She has created five characters, all of which she plays herself. »They represent a cross-section of society – portrayed in an over-the-top fashion«. The Buabeng ladies also have an opinion on Germany’s far-right AfD party – all of them very different: »Africa for Germany«.
