"Now I'm officially the Lord of the rib," he wrote alongside another shot.

For all we know, it could be another joke by the jester as the Queen is currently ill and those people look like wax figures.

Update: Apparently, the actor was just joking as he's put up a full video of the sham which is to promote his upcoming comedy show.

The popular comedian was recently in Wembley where he met the Mayor of London. The actor is currently there ahead of his comedy show: Lords Of The Ribs.

Basketmouth met with the Councillor Parvez Ahmed; elected Mayor Of Brent whose borough covers the Wembley Arena and Leader of Council Councillor Muhammed Butt.

I am announcing my candidacy for the Office of the President of our dear country in the 2019 general elections. Consultations are ongoing and I will announce at a future date under what party. #MakeNigeriaBRIGHTAgain."
