“That show will be for 18 plus and it will be my last vulgar show,” he told Saturday Beats recently.
In
fact, it was alleged that Agwu’s vulgar joke on a top management member
of staff of a telecommunication company made the company to blacklist
him.
However, Agwu insisted that he never cracked a vulgar joke. He said he was blacklisted based on gossip
.
“Nigerians
thrive on gossip. It is gossip that causes some of the quarrels we hear
about even at the Federal Government level. Somebody said something to
somebody who also said it to another person and I was blacklisted. But
we thank God. We have been eating. The blacklist has expired. I am sure
so many people do not know the root of this matter.
“The
chairman was not even at that event. I didn’t make a vulgar joke. I
made a joke and asked why our people always fake their accents each time
they travelled abroad. It wasn’t a bad joke but somebody misinterpreted
it.
“I
know I am blunt but I am not unintelligent as to not know what to say
at corporate events. I thank God that I am no longer blacklisted. I have
been invited to be a part of an upcoming show,” he said.
Agwu, however, is painting the nation’s capital red this weekend at his annual Crack ya Ribs.
According to him, this year’s edition will feature comedians like I go Dye, I go Save, Akporoko, Osama.
Powered
by Heritage Bank, Agwu said this edition would tell the story of
Nigeria and also give the up and coming comedians an opportunity to
showcase their talents.
Musicians, including Ice Prince and Sean Tizzle, will perform at the show.
