AY apologizes to Davido over insensitive joke
Ayo Makun, also known as AY, has publicly apologized to Afrobeats superstar Davido for making an offensive remark about him.
AY has made headlines after a video of him mocking Davido at his recent performance in Warri went viral.
He made Davido the topic of his joke by making a remark about the singer’s various baby moms.
Recall that the comedian’s new baby came into the family 13 years after his first child, Michelle.
Speaking in the viral video, AY said: “Davido, with his small prick, dey give people belle, belle, belle, belle. With my big Warri prick, 13 years belle no come.”

The joke did not land well with many netizens who found it offensive and inappropriate, as they criticized him for making such personal and potentially hurtful remarks about the singer.
Following the backlash, AY took to his official Instagram page to tender an apology to Davido.
He wrote: “I am so sorry for telling that joke the way it came out in Warri. I shouldn’t even call it a joke anymore. It wasn’t funny like it was during my tour of Canada and the US and you have every right to be angry after seeing how the blogs used it.
“Please know that it is always a learning experience for all of us in the entertainment business. I deserve any backlash coming my way for the joke that was badly delivered. No excuses at all, my Aburo. No reason am. I remain your number one fan, and I love you, @davido.”
