Acapella Made in Nigeria Uk Tour - Manchester

Comedian Acapella is basically a stand-up comedian and also a radio personality. I started comedy a long time ago but got my breakthrough in 2008 when I won the famous AY Open Mic Challenge. So professionally, the journey started like eight years ago. We have been pushing it from one end to another, and by the grace of God, we are really growing. We have done all the major comedy shows in Nigeria and of course across the globe; we are spreading like virus and we are taking it a step at a time. Acapella right now is the producer and owner of the biggest gospel comedy show in Africa, it is called Acapella Live in Comedy Goes to Church. Every A-list comedian in this country has participated in the show.

What prompted Acapella Live in Comedy goes to Church:
In 2004, I went for a performance at a church. I was already in the middle of my performance when the pastor came and said ‘who brought this comedian to the altar of God?’ And before I knew anything, I was embarrassed out of the stage. I started crying behind the stage and told God that ‘if you are the one that gave me this talent, make it grow, and when it grows, I will bring it back to the church. In 2005, I got the concept that when I become a brand, my show will be tagged ‘Comedy goes to church’ because God is the giver of every talent and it is necessary that we take it back to him.
