Nasboi said; “I started off mimicking Davido. So, the plan was to get David’s attention for my music. I disturbed this guy till he invited me one day and I started playing my music.
“It [my mimics of Davido] started looking like cruise to everybody. So, I said, okay, let’s jump on it. That’s how I jumped on it and it started looking like it demanded for me to start making skits. So, I had no option than to make skits.”
Nasboi, Nigerian skit-maker and Instagram comedian, has penned a note of appreciation to music star, Davido and some other celebrities in the entertainment industry.
He said this in a letter he wrote to himself, the content creator gave shoutout to celebs that have supported his career, top on the list being Davido.
