As said by Basketmouth, he feels irritated whenever he hears about such entertainers because they are painting people like him and others in the industry black.

The vibrant entertainer made this known in an interactive session with Track News Nigeria, adding that his battle with a real estate company that refused to give him the house he paid N31 million for after 14 years and why he does not trust the judicial system of the country.

His words are: “When I hear stories like that, I feel disgusted because comedy is not a regular job. One has time to craft one’s content, and even if another event comes up, one can attend both if one plans one’s time well. When a client books one and one does not show up, one has not only disappointed them, one has also being unprofessional.”
