Comedian and skit maker Isaac Olayiwola, popularly known as Layi Wasabi, has carved a niche for himself in the comedy scene with his unique style and humor. In a recent interview with Saturday Beats, the award-winning comedian shared what he personally finds amusing about himself.
He also offered uplifting words to those feeling down, encouraging them with practical ways to boost their spirits. Through his distinctive comedic persona, Wasabi continues to entertain and inspire fans while spreading positivity.
“I can’t pinpoint the funniest thing about me, but one aspect that always brings a smile to my face is my unassuming height. People are often surprised by how tall I am when they meet me in person. It’s hilarious because this ‘unexpected’ height reflects in my skits, particularly in the way I sometimes position my body for comedic effect.”
“There are countless ways to lift your spirits when you’re feeling low. You could check out my Instagram page or Kiekie’s for a dose of fun. There’s so much content out there to brighten your day—just go out and find what makes you happy,” he said.
Layi Wasabi shared his excitement about attending a recent Nigerian Idol press conference, where he met stars like former contestant and new judge Iyanya. He expressed admiration for Iyanya and praised the passion of the show’s team. With his infectious energy and unique comedic style, Wasabi remains a beloved figure in Nigerian comedy.
