Revealed! Why AY And Basket Mouth Are Not Best Of Friends

Nigerian comedian and actor, Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, has finally opened up on his alleged beef with his colleague, Bright Okpocha a.k.a Basketmouth.

AY revealed this in a recent ‘ask me anything’ session which he organised on his Instagram page.

A follower had asked, “@aycomedian do you really have any issues with basket mouth?”

AY responded confirming  that while he wasn’t friends with him, he had no “issues” with him. 

 “I don’t have issues with him. But people having unnecessary issues with you are the price you sometimes pay for being progressive.”

 “He has been battling with his uncontrollable superiority complex for the longest. So avoiding his incessant childishness only became necessary for my own sanity.”

Following his response, another fan commented, “@aycomedian in other words the both of you don’t talk.”

Confirming the fan assumptions, AY replied

“We only talk to those who want to talk to us. Does this make sense?”

Nevertheless, this is not the first time news of the alleged rift between the two comedians has been made public. 

In August 2021, Basketmouth disclosed that he fell out with AY because the comedian messed with loyalty in an interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu when the conversation of alleged disunity among comedians in Nigeria came up.

“I’d have stayed where the competition is. I still do standup comedy but not with great energy because I’m targeting all-around entertainment now. My competition is me. There’s nothing [like a feud] between AY and I.

“He came in my space; messed with loyalty by saying something to my lawyer Magnus that I told him in private. It was nothing but it was enough to cause a rift and have me put up the walls. We made peace and he apologised. I have no single problem with AY as claimed. We don’t talk.

“We made peace and he apologised,” he added.
