Obinna on stage with a microphone, mid-story

Hello, I’m Obinna

I grew up in Longsight, the eldest of five, so most of my material was written for me by my mum. I spent eight years in a council parking office before my first open mic, and I still write on the bus.

I play small rooms on purpose. I like seeing faces, even the ones not laughing yet.
