Comedian Ekene Smith is currently in the United Kingdom, negotiating exciting partnerships with prominent show promoters and sponsors in preparation of next year’s edition of his comedy event tagged: ‘Laff Supper’.
Known for his rib cracking performances and years of experience in entertaining audiences, Smith’s latest venture aims to gather a global talent pool while shining the spotlight on the African comedy industry.
“I am in the United Kingdom at the moment, not on holiday enjoying tea and crumpets; I am in strategic meetings with top show promoters and sponsors, cooking up something special for next year’s much anticipated comedy feast: Laff Supper,” he said in a statement made available to the media.
A seasoned comedian, the younger brother to ace comedian Emeka Smith, Ekene has built a career not just delivering jokes, but creating unforgettable experiences.
From intimate comedy nights to large-scale fun-filled events, he has consistently delivered the kind of laughter that lingers long after the lights go out.
But ‘Laff Supper’, he said, isn’t just another comedy show, “it’s a global stage, an open invitation for talents across the world to showcase their skills, with a special focus on promoting the African comedy and entertainment industry.
Think of it as a buffet of humor, where every act is a main course, and the audience is guaranteed to leave full of joy.”
Beyond the spotlight, the comedian wears another important hat as the founder of the Ekene Smith Adigwu Youth Foundation, a platform dedicated to empowering young people through skill development, mentorship, and opportunity creation. His work on and off stage proves that laughter and leadership can indeed go hand in hand.
With preparations for ‘Laff Supper 2026’ now underway, and countdown begun, the comedian urged fans and alike to circle the calendars, prepare their funny bones, and get ready.
“If there’s one thing we know for sure, it’s that when Ekene Smith steps on stage, laughter isn’t optional, it’s inevitable. So, mark your calendars, brace your ribs, and get ready. Next year, the world will be fed, and the main course will be ‘Laff Supper’ With Ekene Smith Live in UK and Nigeria’, the comedian said.
