Seun Kuti, the acclaimed Afrobeats artist, took a humorous jab at comedian AY Makun in response to a skit performed by fellow comedian Bovi.
Bovi's sketch, gaining traction on social media, portrays a negotiation scenario with kidnappers and the release of abducted Nigerian celebrities.
In the video, Bovi engages in bargaining for the release of various celebrities, offering millions for some and comically suggesting a lower amount, N250k, for Seun Kuti.
The abductor expresses dissatisfaction with the proposed sum, threatening to harm Seun if Bovi persists. Bovi humorously continues saying “250, 250,” seemingly hoping for Seun's demise.
During a recent Instagram live session, Seun Kuti praised Bovi as a witty person and contrasted him with AY Makun, whom he sarcastically referred to as not very good at comedy.
The musician was amused by Bovi’s creativity while shading AY Makun.
He said, “Oh, that Bovi skit, e no go better for Bovi. the guy no well, him be wan even do am for his show, him don tell me, Bovi is a funny guy, not like that other guy that is not funny. His name rhymes with Dakun, nowhere him no dey beg.”
