Hailing from East London, Kojo is fast becoming one of the biggest talents to come out of the black comedy circuit. In 2000 kojo signed up and joined "The Comedy School" which was set-up by fellow comedian Rudi Lickwood & Keith Palmer. There he learnt to perfect the art of performance on stage and the different sides of comedy. After Spending two months on the course he performed at his first ever show which was at Middlesex University on April 12th 2000 where he brought the house down and was an instant hit with the crowd.
In the Summer of 2005 Kojo was recruited by the CBBC channel where he now co- presents a kids show along side presenter Reggie Yates called " The Mighty Truck Of Stuff " on Saturday afternoons.
