Basket Mouth, a Nigerian comedian, actor, presenter,
entrepreneur and musician, who is certainly one of the finest comedians in
Africa and his comedy style has been described by many as being phenomenal.
The unveiling took place on Thursday June 2, 2023 in Lagos
where the contracts were signed as he was officially welcomed to the Minimie
family which can otherwise be described as “the house of mad fun”.
Earlier, the company released a teaser on its Instagram page
displaying a silhouette, while urging netizens to decode who its first ever
ambassador could be.
According to a statement made available by Minimie, the
appointment of Basket mouth as its ambassador came at a strategic time and
opportunity to deeply connect with its numerous consumers/ fans in the most
entertaining manner which they have never anticipated.
This alliance has equally been projected to further demonstrate
Minimie’s continued support for the fast-evolving multi-billion-naira industry
in Nigeria.
The partnership became imperative and can readily be linked
to the obvious symmetry between Minimie and Basket mouth’s popularity with the
Nigerian youth, his popular appeal, and his unarguable position in the comedy
industry.
Minimie has over the years gained massive recognition for
throwing its weight behind the comedy industry, a big supporter of everything
fun, comedy and entertainment in general, so long that it brings smile to the
faces of Nigerians, while helping to alleviate the level of stress and boredom
which come with everyday hustle.
From sponsoring notable comedy shows in Nigeria to setting
up a comedy Club aimed at identifying and grooming upcoming young talents,
comedy skits support isn’t left out, all of these to support the exponential
growth of the sector which in turn contributes significantly to the Gross
Domestic Product (GDP) of Nigeria’s economy.
Here is a warning to Nigerians to sit back and anticipate
the “mad fun” and hilarious moments that this partnership promises to spark
both online and offline.
Basket mouth remains the official face of Minimie Nigeria
across all marketing campaigns while the contract lasts.
