About Zakaria Kribo
Zakaria, known on stage as Zakaribo, is an Indonesian stand-up comedian from Gowa, South Sulawesi, and a member of the Stand Up Comedy Makassar community. In 2017 he was one of 35 finalists on the third season of Stand Up Comedy Academy on Indosiar, the same national competition in which fellow comedian Yohanes Yewen placed third that year, and press coverage describes him advancing to that season's top ten before elimination. In 2018 his stand-up material at a KNPI South Sulawesi youth event drew public criticism for content some considered offensive toward a local high school, prompting a public apology to the school's foundation. He has continued performing corporate and community shows in Makassar, including at the Celebes Economic Outlook 2019 business event. In recent years Zakaribo has co-hosted the Makassar comedy podcast Parecu alongside fellow comedians Tumming Abu and Iwan Coy, described in local media as part of a new wave of podcast-based comedy in the city. He continues to build a following through short comedy clips on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube for South Sulawesi audiences.
