“Your Old Man inspired my jokes” — AY to Seun Kuti
Latest entertainment gist
Seun Kuti may have started the online drama, but AY Makun plays his part to perfection, and its his response that concludes the ‘dog’ matter.
Nigerian comic artiste and standup comedian, AY Makun has responded to Afrobeat star, Seun Kuti over the allegations that he had labeled Kuti’s daughter a dog in one of his standup acts.
These claims arose following Seun Kuti’s accusations that AY made jokes about his encounters with the police and prison ordeals and also insulted his daughter.
During an Instagram Live session, Seun Kuti criticized AY’s actions, describing him as “unfunny” and a “dry goat with a smelly mouth.”
He even alleged that AY is known in the entertainment industry for having mouth odor and accused him of being a woman beater, stating that none of his children would respect him.
In response, AY released a Update on his social media page, vehemently denying the allegations. He emphasized that, having experienced the struggle of trying to have a child for 13 years, he would never mock another person, especially a child, by referring to them as a dog.
AY clarified that the reference to a dog named ‘Hilda’ in one of his skits was unrelated to Seun Kuti’s daughter and stemmed from a separate incident involving individuals who had faced backlash for eating dog meat in Akwa Ibom state.
Regarding the claim of having mouth odor, AY expressed his confusion about how Seun Kuti came to that conclusion, as they had never had close contact.
He also highlighted that comedians use humor to address various social issues and trending topics, emphasizing that people with a good sense of humor should not take these jokes seriously.
AY also drew a parallel with Seun’s father, the legendary Fela Anikulapo-Kuti, who was known for attacking and making fun of politicians with his songs and comments.
AY suggested that comedians had learned from Fela’s approach and noted that people often make jokes about him, which he takes in stride because he understands they are meant in good humor.

“My dad Wizkid is not the one begging for pussy” — Son
Latest entertainment gist
When it comes to savage responses, the Baloguns specifically those related to Wizkid by blood, are not to be trifled with and being Davido does not save you from such.
In a recent social media exchange, 13-year-old Boluwatife Balogun, the eldest son of renowned Nigerian artiste Wizkid, threw some savage response at his father’s rival, David Adeleke following their online spat.
Facing some online banter from a Davido fan, Boluwatife Balogun came to his father’s defense rather than keep mute.
The ongoing rivalry between Wizkid and Davido escalated in recent days, with both artistes engaging in public spats and trading insults online. Davido, responding to Wizkid’s jibes, took aim at Wizkid’s physical stature, claiming that Wizkid is so short that he wears size 7 shoes and jokingly suggesting he shops at Footlocker Kids.
Some individuals on social media supported Davido’s claims by sharing photos purportedly showing Wizkid wearing shoes matching his son Bolu’s shoe size.
Davido further escalated the feud by disparaging Wizkid’s music, boasting about his own hits, and challenging Wizkid to release new music simultaneously. He also ridiculed Wizkid’s height, suggesting that despite his own short stature, Wizkid is even shorter.
A Davido fan, seizing the opportunity to taunt Wizkid’s family, commented on Boluwatife Balogun’s TikTok page, asking if it was true that both Bolu and his father wear the same shoe size.
Bolu promptly responded to the taunt, defending his father by highlighting Wizkid’s character and integrity, asserting that despite any jokes about shoe sizes, his father doesn’t stoop to begging for attention or engaging in inappropriate behavior.

Their current campaign may not be going well despite the huge promises they started it with, but Liverpool are ready to look away and perhaps travel back decades before as they prepare for the post-Jurgen Klopp era.
Ahead of the upcoming 2024/25 season, the Merseyside outfit has released its new home kit for the incoming campaign, with Nike, the club’s official shirt designer taking inspirations from Liverpool’s 1983/84 season that saw the Reds lift their 4th European Cup in Rome.
Go Rome or go Home it appears the plan by Nike for Liverpool heading into the incoming campaign, and the Reds were sure to model the new home kit release.
First team stars such as Virgil van Dijk, Luis Diaz, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah were on to model the new jersey despite transfer speculations going down about their potential exit from the club post Jurgen Klopp.
Other first team figures seen modeling the new home kit are Alexis Mac Alister, Alisson Becker, Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo, Ibrahima Konate, Curtis Jones and Joe Gomez (also rumored to be eyeing an exit).
Missing figures from the new home kit release however are those who currently are on the sidelines thanks to fitness issues, such as Diogo Jota, Conor Bradley, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara, Adrian san Miguel and their academy graduates; Jarrell Quansah, Stefan Bajcetic and the likes.
Out from the names, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara and goalie Adrian san Miguel are figures doubtful of remaining at the club next season.
