Why I mocked AY when his house got burnt – Seun Kuti
Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti has revealed why he mocked comedian Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, following the fire that destroyed his multimillion-naira mansion.
Seun Kuti explained that he mocked AY because the comedian had previously made jokes about his own run-ins with the police and prison experiences. He also mentioned that AY had portrayed his own daughter in a comedic manner.
Justifying his actions, Kuti criticized AY, labeling him “unfunny” and referring to him as a “dry goat with a smelly mouth.” He further asserted that it was a widely known fact within the entertainment industry that AY had bad breath.
Seun Kuti’s response highlights the dynamics of humor and personal interactions within the entertainment industry, demonstrating that even in jest, there can be underlying tensions and differences of opinion.
Speaking during a recent Instagram live session with fans, Kuti said, “They say I dey laugh Ayo Makun [AY] say him house burn. You know follow me often because people wey dey follow me often go tell say the day gangan wey the house burn, I went live.
“As the house dey burn, as dem dey try quench the fire, I was on live. Except you sef when he [AY] dey portray my daughter as dog for his yeye skit video; dey take my trials and tribulations take make joke. He used my trials and tribulations to make joke. Not only that. He called my daughter a dog basically in his useless skit.
“That unfunny modaf**ker. That dry goat with smelly mouth. His mouth dey smell. Ask anybody in the industry except they want to lie to you. My own daughter he portray as dog. That one wey dem beat his wife for house. No woman for his life go ever respect him because I’m sure his children have seen him beating his wife.”
