After his recent comments on Nedu's show about Mark Angel, Legit.ng reached out to Ali Baba. During our conversation, we asked him if, very soon, skit makers would chase Stand-up comedians away, considering that there seems to be more money in skit making. He said:
"Stand-up is going nowhere. Two truths can co-exist. However, I would love to note that instead of skit makers chasing stand-up, they're rather delving into it because that's where the real money is. Sabinus now has his own stand-up, Woli Agba does, Coach Remote and many others. Like I said, stand-up is going nowhere."Video of Mark Angel's real estate in Port Harcourt goes viral
