Basketmouth reacts to a report on his income & assets, says it's exaggerated

Comedian Basketmouth has reacted to a report by Vanguard which was published last week where he was estimated to be worth so much money. In the publication, the newspaper said the comedian has two choice properties in Lekki worth N350million, N60million home he built for his mum, a Kia Quoris saloon car worth over N12m, a Honda Crosstour, and 3 other brand new SUV’s which cost over N70m plus s a Cherokee SUV, an Hyundai Elantra, and a 2013 customized Opel Insignia. They also said he makes N60million annually from his comedy shows and made one million pounds from his recent Basketmouth Uncensored show which held in four cities in the UK.

A week after the publication came out, Basketmouth finally comes out to say that a lot of the information was over blown. 
"I honestly don't know how they came up with the figures and few informations they put out there, I honestly don't fancy the exposure....Na this kind story de make extended family members de worry person and prospective clients run from me.... these guys de forget say armed robbers and kidnappers de read newspapers sha. ‎If I de make that kind money, I for don stop comedy naaaa." Basketmouth said.

  50. I agree with him. Thats how armed robbers will now go and start looking for his mother in Amuwo Odofin. Who send them message? Are they the ones who gathered wealth for him? In the kind of envious society we live in.. hian!
