Can you tell us a little about yourself?

My Name is Erhirhi Bonnyhills Okiemute from Agbon Olomu in Ughelli South Local Government, Delta State. I’m from a family of eight, I’m the sixth child. I grew up in several places as a result of the fact that my dad was a Police Officer. Primary school was in Port Harcourt and Uyo Christ the Kings school. Secondary school was at Otovwodo Grammar school, Ughelli, Delta state. I also went to Ogor Technical College, Ughelli. I did my OND at the Universal college of Technology, now known as Polytechnic of Ife and I also studied Business Administration from Ile Ife.

How long have you been doing comedy?

I started comedy in 2004 and went professional in 2009.I presently have VCDs and CDs Vol. 1 to 5 titled Catch Da Lafta fever with Bonnyhills. It was Dr. Shogo who talked me into doing CDs. He advises me whenever I call on him. I also like Basket Mouth, because he is always fresh.

Where are you hoping to be in the next four years?

In the next four years? Hmmm…I should have conquered so much ground, because already it’s only Zamfara, Gombe, kwara and Sokoto I have not been to. But I just cancelled kwara because I was there on Monday through yesterday.

Single or married?

Not married but I have two kids?

Anything else you want to tell us?

Yes, well…I’m more into gospel comedy. I organize church events and corporate functions. I don’t do club things. Most comedians will never forget me because I carry so many of them along by giving them events. I’m Bonnyhills, voted Best Gospel Comedian 2010, Abuja.
