I Made Between 150 -200 Million Naira Last Year - Basketmouth

Comedian Basketmouth on The Truth With Olisa gave us brief run through of his earnings last year where he confirmed he made between N150-200M. Though he was reluctant about his earnings but Olisa pressed a bit further and aided him with rough estimate of his notable earnings in the year including his show and telecom deal. The money discussion is at 28 mark of the video.

The comedian also spoke about piracy, comedians that steals others' jokes and how he protects his jokes. He shared a story of when he visited his friend in Washington D.C, U.S and how he  tried to use his WIFI to download a movie from torrent (an app that stream movie illegally) a website his other friend gave him, his D.C friend instantly got an e-mailed from his Internet Service Provider warning him of Basket's activity. He then used the scenario as an analogy on how the governments of other countries are fighting piracy unlike Nigeria government.
