It came as a shock when comedian , Justice Nuagbe, aka Ushbebe , called Femi Otedola ’s daughter , DJ Cuppy , a terrible deejay during his show last weekend.
When Sunday Scoop reached out to the comedian , he said he only meant it as a joke but it was taken to another level .
He said , “I didn ’ t crack a joke about DJ Cuppy alone ;
I cracked a joke about over seven people and some others seated in the hall.
I don’t understand why people singled out the joke I made on DJ Cuppy.
I also talked about Davido who is always dragging envelopes with entertainers despite coming from a rich background .
I attacked Wizkid and Mercy Johnson too . It was a comedy show .
When you just take two seconds from a long video and put it online , you are obviously looking for attention and controversies .
Something led to that particular video scene online .”
Ushbebe said he would never take such thing personally if he were in DJ Cuppy ’s position , insisting that making people laugh was the essence of a comedy show .
“What do you expect to hear at a comedy show ? If it was not a joke, people in the audience would not laugh.
People attack me too but it has not stopped me from doing my work . Criticisms always make me stronger .
I told Efe Money before that he was a bad musician , but he is now a better musician ,” he said .
Speaking about the outcome of the show tagged Chronicles of Ushbebe , he revealed that he was pleased with the outcome .
He stated , “I didn ’t nurse any fear that it would flop because we had been making plans for a long time .
We didn ’t lose money, but you cannot compare my event with that of Davido or Olamide . It is a comedy show and we had a lot of media partners .
It was also a big challenge to get sponsors ; we were only lucky to get Indomie on board.
When you want N 15 m and you need to take loan to meet up , it is always taxing because you could get the money from the big brands if they were supportive .
I worked more with investors .”
