How Skit Making Is More Lucrative Than Nollywood — Comedian, Nons Miraj

Instagram comedian and skit-maker, Chinonso Ukah, best known as Nons Miraj, has spoken about how lucrative skit-making is compared to acting movies.

During an interview with Saturday Beats, the content creator said she earns more money from making skits than when she was acting in movies.

According to her, during her acting career, she gets N30k per movie but with content creation, she could dictate the amount to receive.

Nons Miraj, who is also called Ada Jesus, said life is now sweet since she made the switch from traditional movies to skits.

She said, “Content creation has changed my life in a very big way. I remember when I used to act in Nollywood films, I would be paid as little as N30,000, and they would keep me on set for one week. Sometimes, one would get stressed. They won’t even give one preferential treatment. But, with skits, one does things on one’s accord.

One is not working under anybody. One dictates the amount one wants to be paid based on the services one is rendering to the people that are paying for adverts. The life is just soft and sweet. Content creation is beautiful, as long as one is doing the right thing.”
