Mariam Apaokagi, popularly known as Taaooma, is a popular Nigerian Instagram comedienne and skit maker.
Asides producing comical skits, she is undoubtedly the most popular Nigerian female skit maker on Instagram and YouTube.PT: what inspired you to start skit making?My fiancé inspired me to start; he taught me how to use the camera, and an editing software called premiere pro. He would make comedy visual effects skits then, so I got interested too and glory be to Almighty Allah everything is going smoothly. Skit making means everything to me, that’s my official business.
PT: You’re currently a corps member, has fame afforded you the opportunity to enjoy your service year?I am totally enjoying my time as a youth corps member, especially when I was in camp. It’s an experience I am definitely not going to forget. I made a lot of friends and I loved it.Omotola Jolade Ekeinde , I love that mummy with all of my heart.Iya Tao. I’m sure she is everyone’s favourite character.No it’s not challenging to me, I am a Muslim so covering my head is the norm for me.2019 I guess.
PT: How do you combine both roles as a small chops business owner and a skit maker? Do you think your fame has made your small chops business thrive?Allahmdulilah, small chops business, and skit making are both doing well. I have a team I work with which makes the whole business easier. Yes, you have to order chop Tao because it’s owned by Taaooma, so Taaooma brand is helping the business.We all have different signatures. Everybody’s signature makes them different.
A lot of people think this is how my mum slaps me all the time but they do not know that the slap is just a SIGNATURE I have created for myself to always add to the skits. Trust me, it’s that slap part everybody waits for when watching any of my skits. My mum does not slap me like this. I just added the slap to exaggerate the humour. Some people talk about my skits supporting child abuse, but they do not know that the slaps are just for humour and has nothing to do with child abuse.There was a time I travelled home and I went shopping with my mummy and the family. A fan recognised me and offered to pay for what we bought. I was super surprised and it dawned on me that I was a household brand.
