One of Nigeria's most popular and skilled comics, the Nigerian comedian is making waves in the business. With his comedic sketches, he has been able to establish a niche for himself in the entertainment business. He earned a degree in law from Obafemi Awolowo University in 2015, spent a year in law school, and was admitted to the bar in 2016. With the help of comedians like Gbenga Adeyinka, Ali Baba, Basketmouth, Tee A, Omo Baba, Okey Bakasi, Klint da Drunk, AY, Julius Agwu, Bovi, and others, Mc Lively has thus far been able to pursue his love.
Mc Lively's background as a lawyer helped him become a dynamic comedian. As a child, he liked to watch Night of a Thousand Laughs albums. He is well-known. He is renowned for using humour to discuss the problems in Nigeria. He gained notoriety as a result of the Agidi film, which highlighted the nation's fuel shortage. When his reverend father delivered a sermon at church, he had the inspiration. Along with his brother, he recorded the script and carried out the shooting. His obstinacy gave rise to the name Agidi. When he first began his career in humor as a stand-up comedian, Mc Lively experienced his fair share of disappointment. His endeavor to become a stand-up comic was a complete disaster. The failure was so severe that he even told a joke in front of the crowd, and not even his girlfriend laughed. Mc Lively said he was unable to sleep that night, but in reality, this occurred four times in the higher institution.
This setback helped him realize his talent for comic acting. Prior to getting into comedy in 2015, he began as an MC in 2013. His buddies are not shocked that he become a comic because he demonstrated his comedic tendencies while he was in the higher institution. Mc Lively is a budding Instagram star already. He has received numerous honors for his comedic video in the entertainment sector. At the City People music awards, he was named the Comedy Act of the Year.
Mclively, born Sanni Michael and sometimes also referred to as Mr Agidi is an indigene of Edo State.
He started off with acting at the age of 7 of which at the age of 17, he already had a drama group. His name, Lively, was earned as a result of his extreme enthusiasm in his teenage years.
He had his Law degree from Faculty of Law, Obafemi Awolowo University.
During his undergraduate days, he was an active member of the Law Students' Representative Council (LSRC).
Mr Agidi started his career as MC in 2013 before he metamorphosed into a comedian in 2015. Michael is one that sees intersections between the thinking process of a Lawyer and the creative process of a Comedian as he believes they both demand thinking on one's feet and communicating those thoughts in a clear and convincing manner.
His study of Law has equally had great impact on his performances as a Comedian as Law has been a confidence boost. He is one who doesn't see himself practicing law for long but feels the training will forever be with him.
An expert in handling corporate events, dinners, weddings and other social events. Mclively has hosted over 200 events in many states in Nigeria for which they all have been a mark of excellence. He has thus presented himself as a situational and realistic comedian as he has used comedy to address a whole lot of pressing issues in Nigeria. These issues range from the striving and struggles of Nigerian youths to unemployment that has become a problem yet to be solved in Nigeria to corruption that has eaten deep into the system of our fatherland.
Michael has carved a niche for himself through his trademark which is his appearance in white shirt, black trousers and an arm bag to match. This appearance has depicted him as Nigeria's number one agitated and unemployed youth. He is also the co-founder of 'Livelihood Entertainment'. An entertainment outfit that has achieved merging live performances into a cinema setting.
