Ace comedian and actor, AY, has continued to speak out about his 17-year-old beef with colleague, Basketmouth.
Recall that AY revealed in a recent tell-all interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo that his feud with fellow comedian Basketmouth dates back to 2006.
In an excerpt from the interview that first went viral, AY narrated how an unpaid N30,000 caused the rift that has lingered on till this day. ICYMI.
The latest portion of the interview, posted online by Chude Jideonwo, revealed a series of other events that made their relationship “irreparable” over the years.
According to AY, after the 2006 incident, he kept trying to mend their relationship and even attempted to attend Basketmouth’s wedding but was denied entry into the venue.
He said that while his wife’s name was on the guest list, his wasn’t, so they had to go back home without attending the wedding.
“When we arrived, my wife’s name was on the guest list, but my own was noticeably missing. I was looking at my wife, my wife was looking at me, and she said, let’s be going home since you are not qualified to enter.” He said.
AY claimed that the feud was so bad that there were times Basketmouth refused to introduce him at events where they were both billed to perform.
“It’s so bad that my name will be removed from an event sometimes. Basket will be at an event. Maybe AY is on the bill, and he won’t introduce me if he’s the MC. I will just go and pick up my mic on the floor and go and do my thing. But I never gave up. Every opportunity, maybe the wife gives birth, I would go with my wife, or maybe something is going on. I kept doing everything.
”One day, Basket was in the club with a glass of drink, so I walked up to him. I said: Bright Okpocha (He’s my senior colleague but my junior in real), how far my guy. As you can see, God has blessed us. You have a house in Lekki, I have a house. You have a child. I have a child. This thing that happened in 2006 guy drop am.
“And my dear colleague looked at me eyeball to eyeball and said, I’m a beast. I don’t forgive.” He added.
