Bovi Reacts To Old Photo Of Basketmouth And AY Together

Top Nigerian comedian, Bovi has reacted to a throwback photo of his colleagues, Basketmouth and AY who are at loggerheads.

Bright Okpocha popularly known as Basketmouth and Ayo Makun aka AY, have been beefing each other for 17 years, over an incident that happened in 2006.

In a recent interview, AY said Basketmouth didn’t put his name on his wedding guest list. He claimed that when he got to Basketmouth’s wedding venue, he realized his wife, Mabel Makun’s name was on the guest list but his name was not on the list so he and his wife went home.

Basketmouth, however, refuted AY’s claim, saying he didn’t invite AY nor his wife to the wedding. He said that a lot of his friends had warned him about AY, calling him a snake who would only shed his skin to become a bigger snake.

Basket added that they have never been friends, as there has never been a day he called on AY to hang out. To buttress his point, Basket said that there is no photo of both of them together.

However, an old picture of both comedians surfaced online yesterday, and Nigerians have been talking about it.

Reacting to the photo, Bovi said it was taken in 2004 and insinuated that Basketmouth was the celebrity who took a photo with a ‘fan,’ AY.

Why I Was Banned From Entering America – Bovi

Nigerian comedian and actor, Bovi Ugboma has opened up on why he cannot enter America.
According to him, he was banned from entering the United States due to his infamous clash with a visa-issuing officer at the American embassy.
Speaking during an Instagram live session with his fans at the weekend, Bovi expressed his disappointment at the way the incident was blown out of proportion by the media.
The Delta State-born comedian revealed that the visa officer he met at the embassy was very unfriendly, but he did not provide specific details of what transpired between them.
He stated that he was embarrassed when the story was amplified in the media and wondered how anyone could gain access to a visa officer since they are protected by a glass wall.
Recalling the incident, Bovi said he only asked the officer how many visas he had obtained in the last ten years, considering he had always had two American visas in that period.
However, the officer reportedly replied, “There is a new sheriff in town,” before pushing back Bovi’s passport and that of his wife.
 
“The way everything went, it escalated in the media. They started to have different versions of the story,” he said.
The popular comedian also spoke about his strained relationship with his father while growing up and revealed that he was determined to raise his own kids differently.
“I don’t want to raise my kids the way I grew up under my old man, so I am trying to be different,” he added.
