The comedian Bright Okpocha, also known as Basketmouth, has refused to respond to the claim by his colleague, Ayodeji Makun, popularly known as AY, that the cause of their feud was a debt of N30,000.

Recall that AY had, in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, claimed, “In 2006, Basketmouth usually had multiple wedding gigs on Saturdays’. So what he used to do at that point in time was to attend one and, at a point, leave the venue to catch up in the other venue.

“Now, one of the gigs that I got his endorsement to stand in at that time was N30,000, and 30,000 was everything to me at that time." Two weeks later, I still hadn’t seen $30, and I was starving. I decided to ask for $30K, and he said this person hasn’t paid. "It was very funny to discover that the full payment was made before the event.”

”One day, I met Basket in the club with a glass of drink, and I said to him, How far, my guy?" This thing that happened in 2006, guy drop am. And my dear colleague looked at me eyeball to eyeball and said, "I’m a beast." "I don’t forgive.”

Reacting to AY’s claims during his recent show, while cheered on by fans about the incident, Basketmouth said, “To be honest, I don’t want that guy to ever hear from me.”
