Irrepressible comedian AK Dans was born in the world’s largest refugee camp, Kukuma, in Kenya, after his mother fled South Sudan in the 1990s.
He’s now a successful stand-up artist – or was - until the COVID-19 crisis put a temporary halt to his live shows.
But you can’t keep a good man down for long, and now AK’s latest challenge is taking part in an online show with the support of UN refugee agency, UNHCR.
As the agency marks it’s 70th birthday this week, he’s been explaining to UN News’s Daniel Johnson how he got into comedy in the first place – and how he wants to help break stereotypes about what refugee life is like.
