Speaking during the chat, Brain Jotter said, “2020, my salary was N15,000. In 2021, my salary was N30,000. In 2020, I was working in a laundry. I had just gained admission into the University of Lagos.
“Apart from working in a laundry, I was also doing other stuff. In my school, I was selling bedbug killer. In my first year, I sold doughnuts in my class. In year two, I sold bedbug killer. And year three, I drove to school.”
He went on to say despite hitting the limelight, he remained hard-working and could not stay without shooting a skit in five days.
He further said that prior to his skit-making adventure, his dream was to rent a small room and become a taxi driver
“Ever since my video went viral till now, I can’t just stay five days straight without working. I’ve been restless since hitting stardom, probably except I’m not in Lagos. But even if I’m not in Lagos, I’m still thinking of ideas for content.
”My dream then was to rent a one-room apartment and become a taxi driver” Brain Jotter added.
