Nigerian skitmaker and comedian, Emmanuel Ejekwu, popularly known as Sabinus, has shared a revelation about the career choice of his father, and how venturing into comedy became a source of issue.

The award-winning comedian made the revelation during a recent interview with VJ Adams, stating that his father didn't initially approve of his decision to go into skitmaking. He shared how his father emphasized law to him during his admission process, and after trying, he had to settle for Linguistics and Communication Studies at Uniport.

He further explained how upon graduation, his dad didn't find out he was already into comedy, until a year after, and this became a source of ruckus between them.

Sabinus, however, noted that despite his father's disapproval of his comedy career, he had no choice than to accept his son's choice, after he began getting money from it.

He said:
"At first, my dad never wanted me to be what I am today, he wanted me to be a lawyer. I tried my best but I couldn’t secure a law admission. So, I had to settle for Linguistics and Communication Studies at Uniport.

It was on the campus that I saw skit making and I decided to try it out. Money wasn’t coming.

“After I graduated, my dad never knew I was a comedian because I was hiding it. It was one more year after school that he started seeing me on comedy show posters. My sisters confirmed to him that I was into comedy. He was very furious. He fumed, ‘Which comedy? Stupid business. Look at the boy I sent to become a lawyer.'”
