Satirist and event host, Pararan, was a guest on this weekend's edition of The Liz Show, hosted by Elizabeth Essuman.

He was candid during the conversation, stating his reasons for not believing in pastors, emphasising that he only puts his trust in God alone.

He told the host, "Most pastors use imagination to play on the intelligence of many attendees who appear desperate."

The pragmatic comedian went on to reveal that he stumbled into presenting 'mock news'—a style that has won him many fans—by chance, but it grew significantly, becoming a lucrative venture.

His use of pidgin language since 2017, when he began this style of news reporting, has helped him stand out among his peers.

This approach came after he aspired to play a role similar to Trevor Noah's; however, he noted that doing it in pidgin would set him apart, which it certainly did.
