Ghanaian comedian Jacinta Ocansey, popularly known as the ‘Queen of Comedy,’ recently opened up about the challenges she faced on her journey in the comedy industry.
In an interview with Joy Entertainment’s Becky, Jacinta shared her initial dreams of a successful career in comedy and how the reality of the difficulties she encountered surpassed her expectations.
