Nigeria popular female skit maker, Maryam Apaokagi professionaly known as Taooma has spoken in her recent interview on varieties of topic, one of which is her conviction about engagement.

She also spoke how she’s been able to survive to date in the comic industry even though it is a male-dominated space.

She said, “To be very honest, 2022, has been a very challenging year for me, I won’t lie but as usual in the Nigerian way we always seem to make it through no matter what and how hard things get.”

She said, “Does it make a difference? Being engaged doesn’t make a difference, it’s just the ring.”

“First, I would say what a man can do, a woman can do better. I know the skit industry is a male-dominated space or should say continent on its own.”

“But I do my best to make sure that I give other people that also want to stand up or come up with the same opportunity and let them know that they can also do it, no matter their gender. And they don’t have to get dirty.”
