Nosa Afolabi, also known as Lasisi Elenu, is a prominent Nigerian comedian and skit creator. He has claimed that due to the pressure and “materials” required for a successful performance, stand-up comedy is harder than skit creation.
During a Hip TV interview, Lasisi disclosed this.
“[Stand-up comedy and skit-writing] both have a distinctive feel. The pressure of stand-up comedy is intense.You must be at the top of your game and have a variety of supplies on hand in case one you use isn’t up to par; you can always improvise. It’s crucial to do that action at all times.
“However, skit-making has become a part of me, one which I can do at any time, at any moment, from sleep; it’s a go for me. I know how to put myself in tune.
“Yeah, both are lucrative. It just depends on how you channel it. As a matter of fact, it’s not how hard you work but how smart you work.

“So, it’s not about making the most skit videos; it’s how well you channel the videos to the right plugs, to the right place, to brand them in such a way that in turn, you get financial reward for them.
“I believe either skit-making or stand-up comedy can give you the financial gains you’re looking for.”
Lasisi also stated that he’s able to play different characters in his skits due to his love for fiction.
“I take a lot of pride and joy in my characters because I am a big fan of fiction.
“I have seen a lot of Hollywood movies and characters that have come to play over the years, and it’s one that people can tell you their favorites.
“In doing so, I create different ones with different looks, charisma, and aura. It’s part of the content I create.”
