Ibadan-born Comedian, Kenneth Ehalaiye, popularly called ‘Papyken’ has declared himself as one of the finest in the Nigerian comedy industry.
Papyken, a graduate of Mathematics and Statistics from the Federal University of Technology, Minna, Niger state, made the disclosure on his official Instagram page, @comedianpapyken.
The multi-talented comedian shared a comparative photograph of himself and some of the most famous comedian in Nigeria and added: “I just realised I am the finest in Nigeria’s comedy industry…and there is no doubt about it, ask @akpororo@omobabacomedian…”
When asked what other careers he would have chosen apart from comedy, Papyken replied: “I would probably be acting or modelling”
Speaking on his experience, the budding comedian who excitedly named Basketmouth as his role model in the industry said he gathered lots of experience from handling small events which prepared him for some of the big shows that are now coming his ways.
“For me, comedy is a way of life, from free shows to small ones and the very big ones that are now coming my way, I value all the insights I gained at every stage of my career growth.
“Today, I’m glad to state that I have worked with MTN project, Night of a thousand laughs among others.”
