He claimed that his early passion of art led him to eventually pick up tailoring.

Carter Efe, who recently appeared on the Hip TV show Trending, presented by reality queen KimOprah, declared, “I’ve been funny since I was born.” I started performing stand-up comedy while I was a student. I used to just stand in front of the class during breaks and start making everyone laugh.

“Obioma, I was a London tailor before I started doing skits. I adore the arts. For instance, I edit my own sketches. One day, I informed my dad that I wanted to become a tailor. I stated that I wanted to learn tailoring since I adore creativity, and he asked what about my education. It took me less than six months to pick up sewing skills.

Sometimes when I was learning to sew, I would pretend to be unwell to get away from my supervisor so I could go film a skit. I’ll return in the afternoon following that. He still gave me punishment. He would order me to bow. I would spend the entire day on my knees.

“Until one day, when Broda Shaggi put out a challenge on Instagram, saying that everyone ought to groove to a tune. I was in Delta State at the time. I said, “Let me just vibe to this,” and after doing so, I emerged first. I took home the PS5.

“Shaggi advised me to travel to Lagos in order to get my reward. I sold the PS5 for roughly N300,000 after I got it. I then made the decision to remain in Lagos. I was travelling to different sites to film my skit, and my transportation costs came to N300,000. At the time, I was staying with a friend.
