Beggars are Lazy People... I Use to Lie on Juluis Agwu's Floor, Collect N500 from 2face – Basket Mouth

Beggars are Lazy People... I Use to Lie on Juluis Agwu's Floor, Collect N500 from 2face – Basket Mouth  chiomaandy.com
One of Nigeria's ace stand-up comedian, Basket Mouth as he is best known has said that there was no reason beggars should be on the street. In a brief chat with newsmen, he in fact, categorised them as lazy people (I kinda agree with him, i mean what happened to creativity?)
Well, since the gist isn't about me, continue below to read how he made it to where he is now, sleeping on the floor of Julius Agwu's apartment + 2face supporting him with  N500...

Recounting his challenges, Basket Mouth revealed that if he wasn’t a comedian, he would have done something else that could have made him better than who he is today.

“I have gone as far as taking the job of a disc jockey just to survive in the street which is even the more reason why my jokes are street based. I have had to stand from Benin to Lagos in a luxurious bus just to come to Lagos for shows. I thank Ali Baba and 2Baba who use to always support me with the sum of N500,” he said.

Basket Mouth also revealed that he used to sleep on the floor of Julius Agwu’s room in Jos and earned N8000 on their first co-host show in Jos.
How inspiring! Just goes to show what persistence and believing in one’s self can do. This is a guy who swims in millions and millions of naira presently with properties scattered here and there.
