The Nigeria movie industry has created lots of stars over time and more are still unveiling as the day goes by with various producers scrambling to have the best acts on their production set.

Are these artistes affordable or to expensive? Whatever the case is, using a good actor to interpret one's script is always a plus for every production.

To analyse some certain actors in the industry, Nollywoodgists.com will take a look at the comedy aspect of the sector as great but few talents abound in that area of acting.

Picking some of the few players in comedy, the likes of Nkem Owoh comes to mind as many see him as one of the most 'Foolish' actor the industry has so far had. He is very versatile and is always ready to give his script interpretation that juicy taste that holds audience spell bound and asking for more. He has featured in many movies with the hit movie, 'Osofia in London.'

The likes of John Okafor aka Mr Ibu, is another act that can make one urinate on his body while watching the actor display his acting prowess. Imagine how his children will sit at home to watch their father get drunk that he even sleeps in the bush or steals better still, acting the role of a mad man. Well, all these roles help's to put food on his table though but the actor is always at his best to deliver.

Charles Awurum is another clown to pick and with his pot-belly, one wonders how he manages to run after doing something bad in the village. He is a good 'thief' and very good at deceiving people to get what he wants but very lazy and smart at blackmailing people. These are roles one can easily catch him interpret to the best of his capacity yet, the actor is not relenting in his efforts to be on top of his game.

With the latest entrant into the kings of clowns table is Akwa Ibom state born actor, Imeh Bishop, who's acting skills marvels many. The actor is just the toast of many as within his short entrant into the industry, he is one of the most sorts after comic actor who is fast gaining ground both in his state and in Lagos. The actor has featured in countless movies with the most popular one, 'Okon Calabar and Okon Goes to school.'

As great fans and lovers of the Nigerian movie industry, who would put a stamp on as one of the best so far when it comes to comedy?
