Nasboi Sparks Reactions with Surprise Retirement Message
Popular Nigerian skitmaker and singer Nasboi left fans stunned after sharing a heartfelt message claiming he was leaving the comedy scene. In the early hours of the day, Nasboi posted a seemingly emotional note reflecting on his 5-year journey in skit-making.
He wrote, “For the past 5 years, I’ve dedicated myself to creating skits using laughter, storytelling and real-life moments to entertain… After a lot of reflection and prayer, I have dedicated to quit skit making.”
He added, “This journey has been nothing short of amazing. The love from fans, colleagues, I say thank you.” Nasboi also mentioned it was time for him to grow as an artist and explore new paths.
Fans Moved by His Words, Until the Twist
The post drew quick responses from fans and colleagues who believed Nasboi was indeed stepping away from comedy. Many dropped emotional messages, thanking him for the joy he brought over the years.
However, in a surprising twist at the end of the post, he flipped the mood completely. He wrote in Pidgin, “Make una no mind me na malaria dey do me. Help me stream my new song ‘Friday Night’.”
The announcement turned out to be a clever trick to promote his latest single. He ended the post with a cheeky question, “Quit say Wetin happen?” making it clear it was all part of the plan.
Skit-Maker Turned Musician? Not Quite
While Nasboi has gradually introduced music into his craft, he hasn’t officially left comedy behind. This latest stunt confirms that he still blends humour with promotion in ways that surprise and entertain his fans.
His song Friday Night is now live on streaming platforms. Judging by the reactions, the buzz from the fake goodbye might just help the track climb the charts.
