Bright Okpocha, aka Basketmouth, a well-known comedian in Nigeria, has said that he will give up comedy in five years.

Basketmouth made this information clear during an interview on Hitz FM in Ghana.

The comedian declared his intention to make every year count after claiming to have been floating for the previous six years.

”Last year, I told myself and my team, you know what, I am going back to comedy. I want to do five years, and I am quitting. I am quitting in 5 years. I have got five years to do this, and I am done. I will still be cracking jokes, but it wouldn’t be a professional thing,” he said.

The father of three added that he is now into movies, series, and concert production.

”I want to experience something new, and I want to be remembered for something else other than comedy,” he added.
