Basket Mouth Rules Kenya and Ghana.

After taking his brand to unprecedented height with his five-star performance and show at prestigious 02 Arena in London, star comedian, Basket Mouth was at it again in Ghana and Kenya as he confirms his place as Nigeria ’s biggest comedy export from Nigeria .

Basket Mouth was in Ghana courtesy of Globacom, the telecommunication company which he represents as ambassador. He was in Ghana as stand up comedian at the event where the communication company hosted Nobel Laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka early this month. The event had chairman of Globacom, Dr Mike Adenuga, all foreign ambassadors in Ghana and literary professors from across Africa in attendance. Basket Mouth was in his comic element and he described his performance that night as one of the ‘very best’ so far.

Immediately after Ghana , he was in Kenya as major headliner for an event tagged, Naija Night which was put together by MTEC, Kenya . Nigeria’s soul singer, Darey Art Alade, Whyire from Kenya , Naicom and up-coming comedian, Buchi were part of stars that performed that night. The event which took place April 10 at Carnivore was so massive people had to sit on the floor when the organizers ran out of chairs.

‘I did not know I am that big in Kenya, I had to do a double check when the immigration officer at the airport asked for my autograph. Kenyans showed me massive love and acceptance, I am still trying to recover from it yet’ he said.

Meanwhile plans are underway to stage his brand new show, Lord of the Rib in Nigeria sometimes in July. The event which is going to be a total departure from his past show would have at least three international comedians from South Africa and United Kingdom. Other Nigerians starts that would be on board are Okey Bakassi, I go Die, Bovi, Buchi, Dr Sid, Terry G, Wande Coal, 2face Idibia, Jesse Jagz, Ice Prince and others.

‘I usually perform alone at Basket Mouth Uncensored but the Lord of the Ribs platforms will be a more accommodating one as other stars from Nigeria and outside of Nigeria will be on stage to do what they know how to do best.’ Speaking on the exclusivity of the show, Basket Mouth said the show will still be exclusive. ‘Basket Mouth brand is an exclusive one, so the show will still be as exclusive as possible without being too expensive’.
