Comedian, Basketmouth has said he diversified into other aspects of comedy because stand-up comedy isn’t commercialized in Nigeria.
Speaking in a chat with The Will Downtown he said: “The difference between Nigeria and elsewhere is that we do not have comedy clubs in Nigeria. Every state in America has at least four to five comedy clubs where comedians can walk in and say I want to do a 15-minute set, and that’s how they rehearse their material. Here in Nigeria, there is no stage where you can go and try your new materials,” he said.
