AY and fan battle on Instagram

AY, one of the most successful comedians in Nigeria and Africa, has engaged himself in a call and respond challenge with a follower on Instagram.

This came about after AY posted a video of the vice president of the country commending and recognising his movie Merry Men. Professor Osibanjo acknowledged how the movie made the Agbada a brand in the country so much so that even the politicians has to join.

An excited AY shared the good news with the caption: “Even the presidency is paying attention to #Merrymen. I am sure @profosibanjo cannot wait for #Merrymen2.

However, this did not go down well with a follower identified as Kech_jacobs, as she claims that the presidency pays more attention to nonsense rather than to the problem of the people.

Well, the comedian did not take kindly to the criticism and made it known to the follower that his movie is not nonsense but rather his hard work. The comedian said he has been able to do something for himself rather than wait for the government as some people do. He also noted that he paid over 250 people for the production of the movie.

The follower, in turn, asked AY and other celebrities to use their platforms and voice to call out the government to which AY replied that he is not a politician and should be allowed to do the work that he understands.

The MerryMen2 is set to hit the cinemas on 20th December 2019.
