Comedian Obinna has revealed that he has indeed secured the bag after getting the Kiss FM morning show job.

Speaking to fellow comedian 2Mbili on his Youtube channel after announcing he has joined the station, Obinna explained how much he is being paid.

"I did not say anything, but what I will say is, it is somewhere between ...but what I want to say is, what I'm being paid is good let's say it is 6 times what I was being paid previously," Obinna said.

Asked if he was to be poached by his previous employers and offered twice what he is getting at Kiss FM, would he leave?

Without hesitation, he said, "Never."

Adding, "we move. You know there are people who are now working and being paid a lot of money, but the environment they are working in is not conducive, friendly, or a happy environment. I would choose a happy environment with less money other than an environment where you are pressed, and you are not happy. But nowadays, I chose peace."

Obinna revealed that he has worked in many media houses.

"I'm the only radio presenter to have done the whole 9 yards, started with the late-night show, then evening, then midmorning, then drive, and now breakfast. I'm contented."

He added, "They made me stronger, made me work harder, and made me better. Let me take this opportunity to thank everyone that FIRED me, PUSHED me away, CANCELLED me, or MISTREATED me in a personal or professional position, ASANTENI. Without that, I wouldn't have worked harder maybe."
