Talented comedian, Buchi has grown to become one of the finest exports in the Nigerian comedy industry since he made his bow several years ago.
In an interview with ERAVE, the comic character disclosed that Nigerian comedians don’t charge each other for shows unlike the counterparts in the music industry. “To us comedians, comedy shows have become ‘osusu’ (contribution) where everyone of us will contribute our quota for another comedian. Nigerian comedians don’t charge each other for shows which is why you will see many comedians perform at a comedy event on a single night unlike the musicians who pay to have another singer at a show.”

Hungry blogger, no proofreader. See as you've already jonzed in the writeup.

Wow. I didn't know they don't pay each other to perform. It's good for the industry especially upcoming talents as it gives them a chance to shine and get accustomed to large audiences.

It's sad and wicked that musicians make other musicians pay to perform - only a hungry mind would conjure the notion. If I was a musician rather than get overrated big acts to open my shows I'd give upcoming unknown talents a chance to showcase themselves to a broader audience.

They dnt charge each other but they dnt give room for upcoming acts to showcase their talents too.we are tired of recycled jokes.tnk God for the likes of opa Williams and co..

good to know they don't charge each other but its hard to believe tho
