My first nomination ever is an international nomination with the Top African Stars in the ADARA Awards for “African Comedian Of The Year” in South Africa. I must say it’s a blessing being nominated alongside my brother Patrick Idringi Salvado, who I’ve watched since stand up Comedy started in Uganda and Basketmouth the first International Comedian I fell in love with.
