Nigerian content creator and comedian Brain Jotter has shared his experience working with Ghanaian comedians, describing the collaboration as “extremely easy.” Jotter, known for his popular comedy skits, is currently in Ghana for the premiere of a stage play titled You Play Me, I Play You, directed by actor and producer Fiifi Coleman. The play, which will be staged at the National Theatre and Bukom Boxing Arena on November 8 and 9, 2024, features a stellar cast including Ghanaian comedians Clemento Suarez and Jeneral Ntatia.
In an interview with 3FM Drive on November 1, 2024, Brain Jotter spoke highly of the ease of working with his Ghanaian counterparts.
