The name Carter Efe, no doubt, has become a household name.
As far as the Nigerian entertinment industry is concerned, Carter Efe, born Oderhwo Joseph Efe, has carved a niche for himself, both as a skit maker and as an artist.
The popular skit maker in an interview recently made some revelations about himself.
He said; “I have been funny right from birth. I’ve been doing stand-up comedy since I was in school. During break time, I would just stand in front of the class and start making people laugh.”
“I was a london tailor, ‘Obioma’, before I ventured into skit making. I love art. For example, I edit my skits by myself. I told my dad one day that I wanted to learn tailoring.”
“He said what of my education and I insisted that I want to learn tailoring because I love creativity. I didn’t even spend up to six months before learning how to sew.”
“When I was learning tailoring, sometimes I would lie to my boss that I was sick and go to shoot a skit. Then I will come back in the afternoon. He still punished me. He would tell me to kneel. I would kneel till the end of the day.”
“Until one day, Broda Shaggi posted a challenge on Instagram: he said everybody should vibe to a song. Back then I was in Delta State. I said let me just vibe to it and I vibed to the song then I came out first. I won PS5.”
“Shaggi said I should come to Lagos to receive my prize. When I collected the PS5, I sold it for about N300,000. Then I decided to stay back in Lagos.”
“I was using the N300,000 for transport fares to go to locations to shoot my skit. I was staying with one of my friends then.”
