“It made sense that we bring it here. The first one we did was See Gobe, and Double Wahala last year eclipsed See Gob…it was completely flawless. Now at that state we said there’s no doubt that bringing the show to Nigeria would be the right decision.

It would be worth the investment and it’s exciting for us. Corporate Nigeria and sponsors have latched onto it in a big way so in my view, it’s going to be bigger than all the shows we have ever done.”
