Hookup is not the only way to make money - Skit-maker, Kemz Mama

She was speaking to The Punch and acknowledged that the hardship in Nigeria is pushing people to do different things to make a living.

Kemz Mama said; “A lot of people are doing different things to survive in Nigeria, and it is craazy. However, I don’t advise people to engage in ‘hook-up’, whether digitally or physically. There are other ways to make money and survive.”

Talking about the experience of acting as Mr Macaroni’s wife, she said; “The best part of playing Mummy Wa is actually acting alongside Mr Macaroni. He is a wonderful person, and I am just so happy playing the character.”

The interviewer asked her why she recently shared a video collage of herself detailing her days of small beginnings, and Kemz noted that a movie he produced is coming out soon and the post was a way of reminding herself of her humble beginning in the industry.

“I was inspired to share the video, because of the fact that my movie is coming out soon. I am very happy about it. For some people, it might not mean anything, but this thing that started small for me has become a whole lot. It is something I have always wanted to do, and I am happy that I have done it, and will still do even more,” Mummy Wa said.
