Basketmouth Eventually Apologizes To AY And Others [VIDEO]

Bright 'Basketmouth' Okpocha and Ayodeji 'AY' Makun

Comedian Bright Okpocha, known as Basketmouth, has at last expressed regret to his friend and coworker Ayodeji Richard Makun aka AY after a 17-year quarrel.

Remember how AY and Basketmouth's ongoing argument has been in the news?

In a Black Box interview with media personality Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Basketmouth stated that he had a falling out with AY because "he messed with loyalty" in 2021.

"To be honest, I don't want that guy (AY) to ever hear from me," he said.

They were never pals, he continued.

In response to the long-standing rift, AY blamed a bad business deal that happened in 2006 in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo in May 2023. 

He said: "Now to all the people in the industry and beyond that I have offended. I'm saying this to you right now from the bottom of my heart, I'm genuinely sorry please forgive me. To the people that have accused me of doing things that have affected their careers in one way or the other, I'm not going to accept or deny these allegations, but God knows the truth. But regardless, please forgive me from the bottom of my heart.

"Now to my guy AY, I don't know if my apology is still valid right now but if it is, please forgive me for whatever I have done or said in the past that affected you in any way forgive me. And I want you to know that I have forgiven you for whatever you have done or said knowingly or unknowingly. It's gone, and I just wanted us to live in peace and harmony.

"Now for the people who are assuming that this apology video is birthed because I have a show coming up on the 26th of November, I will like to say you are absolutely correct. I'm trying to sell tickets for my show but I'm also sorry for everything that I have done."
