Up close and personal with Pompi aka Dinyanya

In an interview with Arts & Culture, Pompi explained that his biggest passion was content creation, acting and moving people’s emotions through his performances. “I normally collaborate with other local content creators. Minestrone Soup, Xolo Black, Triccs, Jonny Pule and Maatla Ephraim Basha inspired me when I saw them online back in 2019 and that is when I decided that I want to make vines. And what makes me different from other comedians is that I am a natural performer. When I act I get into character and I ensure that it becomes believable to the audience and that is what sets me apart from fellow online comedians,” he said.

Furthermore, he added that he would like to work with different kinds of creative minds in the art industry because he felt that they could break boundaries and achieve more if they collaborate with young creative minds in Botswana. He further said that since he started comedy, Batswana have shown him great support. He added that ever since his debut in the local comedy industry, he had never received any negative comments except the love and appreciation for the work he does.
