A comedian and content creator, Emeka Erem, aka Ajebo, has said that he usually gives negativity a wide berth.
He told Sunday Scoop, “I take time to relax. I hang out with my kids a lot. I am very involved in their lives. I work from home, so I am always available to spend time with them. I also stay away from any form of negative energy. I surround myself with positive energy, great minds and most importantly, my family.”
Asked how he deals with negative feedback and criticisms, he said, “Aside from being a comedian, I am a media communications professional, so I know that people perceive information from different perspectives. Not everybody will understand one, and that is okay. I take constructive criticisms and work on them. However, I ignore negative criticisms.”
Recounting an instance when spontaneity on stage helped him handle an unexpected situation, the comedian said, “About five years ago, my friend, Mike Ezuruonye (an actor), was hosting a show and he threw jabs at me. AY (the comedian) called me out from the audience. I got on stage and delivered just one line that threw the hall into thunderous laughter for about three minutes. It felt really good.”
Ajebo also stated that he had a lot in store for his fans at the forthcoming 10th edition of his comedy show tagged, Ajebo Unleashed 10.
