About two weeks ago , Nigerians woke
up to a rude shock when popular
comedian, Bovi , posted on his
Instagram page that his colleague and
friend , Basketmouth , got robbed. Many
of his fans were quick to sympathise
with him while others were
apprehensive as nothing was heard
about the humour merchant .
Ever since the incident occurred, the
ace comedian had not spoken about
the encounter he had with the men of
the underworld till Saturday Beats
reached out to him . Responding to a
mail the comedian thanked Nigerians
for their concern but also begged them
to put the incident in the past where it
belongs.
Like any doting father, he thanked God
that his children were unaware of the
robbery incident because they were
asleep all through the encounter .
Basketmouth said , “ I will rather not
talk about the robbery incident
because it is in the past now . I just
thank God nobody was hurt . My kids
were asleep throughout the incident so
that is something to really thank God
for as the trauma would have messed
them up for a while .”
The comedian who started out as a rap
artiste told Saturday Beats that he has
not forgotten his first love , music. He
added that he would revisit the studio
booth once he has the time .
And just like his colleagues AY , Bovi
and Owen G, the dreadlock wearing
comic act hinted that he would release
a movie soon.
“ I have had to put my music career to
rest for now as I have a lot of projects
before me but soon, I will revisit it.
Also, I have been working on a movie
for a while now , but due to time
constraint, I have not been able to
start production but I will do so soon
though,” he said .
The actor who turned 38 recently told
Saturday Beats that he is thankful to
God for everything especially when he
looks back at where he is coming from
in life .
“ I feel blessed because I know that the
life we have can be taken for granted
sometimes. I always thank God for
every second, minute, hour , day,
month and year I witness . Turning 38
is amazing and I pray that God will
continue to bless me with more years
in great health, happiness , favour and
more. I thank God for everything
especially when I look back to where I
am coming from, it is really humbling
where God has placed me and where
he is taking me to . I am grateful for
everything.
“ I am good at making low points
become high points . In everything that
comes my way , I always thank God
while believing that there is a reason
for it. The ability to embrace
everything in good faith and never
backing down or getting distracted is
one thing I think I am good at ,” he
said .
When asked what fame has robbed
him of the ace comedian simply said it
was his privacy but he was quick to
add that he would not change anything
if given the chance .
“ I have been robbed of my privacy
and the freedom I had . The fact that I
must be very careful with everything I
say and do is a bit of a pressure.
However , I wouldn ’ t trade the journey
for anything . I won ’t change a thing ,”
Basketmouth said .
