Nigerian skit maker, Maryam Apaokaji, popularly known as Taaooma, has revealed that her mother inspired some of her skits.
The comedian, known for acting out multiple characters in her skits, made this known in an interview with show host and actress, Nancy Isime.
In the interview published on Wednesday, Taaooma noted that she got ideas for her skits whenever she was around her mum.
When asked what or who inspires her skits, Taaooma answered, “My mum. Whenever I’m around her, she gives me -unknowingly- a lot of stories; a lot of things, yeah.”
She also added that she does get ideas from daily activities that happen around her too.
Taaooma further revealed that it would be difficult for her to act out a skit on stage because she had to play out up to seven or eight characters.
