“But you have to be passionate and talented to do skit making because it’s frustrating. If you’re not passionate about it, you will get tired.

“I’ve seen someone who joined skit-making because he wanted to buy a Benz. You have to be loved genuinely, and that takes a lot of work,” said Oluwadolarz.

Speaking about the growth of the content creation industry, he said, “I am happy to see that the industry has gone far. Gone are the days when we used to share flyers for people to go and watch our skits. People didn’t understand what skit-making was. I am talking about 2010, 2011, and 2012. Now everybody understands, and there are people now who want to watch skits. People don’t watch their TV anymore. People now come online just to watch skits.

“I am happy that the industry has grown, and for people like me who pioneered the industry, I am happy that there are new talents in the industry.”
