Ghanaian comedian, Nino says he started his career as comedian with children and also anyone who knows how to make children laugh has the potential to become a comedian.
Speaking on the Late Nite Celebrity Show with Foster Romanus on eTV Ghana, he revealed his career journey as he narrated how he began his comedy career.
He recalled how he started comedy, performing for children in charity homes.
‘About six years back, I used to do a lot of charity comedy shows. Every festive season, I would contact a charity organization so that they would assemble the kids for me. After doing the charitable work, I would do kids playtime with them and share some jokes with them so with my stand-up comedy, I started with kids,’ he shared.
According to him, if you can make children laugh, you can be comedian and he said it was Khemikal who took him to his first proper stand-up comedy show at Comedy Bar inside Accra mall where he met the likes of DKB, Jacinta, Hafco and others.
‘And from what I know, if you’re able to make children laugh, then you can do comedy so I started with that and it was along the line that I met Khemikal the comedian who pushed me more. We became friends and he told me that I’m a very funny person and I have that charisma so I should not limit myself,’ he said.
Nino said he grew his skill through stage performances as a performer and began to work his craft on bigger stages to bigger audiences.
