In today’s session of who in our entertainment industry is either Sinking or Shining, we bring you one of Uganda’s top comedian — Patrick Idringi aka Salvador. The Telecom Engineer graduate however later ventured into comedy that has since turned into a career.
Starting it as a passion, comedy has moved Patrick places. Salvado has traveled to Nigeria, Tanzania, Kenya, Rwanda and even Europe to grace comedy shows alongside some of the big names in the industry. The peak of his passion/career came when he was named among the top ten comedians in Africa alongside Nigeria’s Basketmouth and Kenya’s Omondi, this did not only hype his game but also served a good reward for his hard work.
However his career was dealt a major blow earlier this year when his comedy group “THE CRACKERS” parted ways with six members leaving him with only four to work with.
The once weekly show later turned monthly but even the turn up has since been cut to less than half because the audience was divided between him and his other breakaway counterparts.
It’s at this point that we seek your opinion, do you think Patrick Salvado has hit the peak of his game or more is yet to come? Is he Sinking or Shining?
