Popular Nigerian comedian Ayo ‘AY’ Makun has made peace with Afrobeat artist Seun Kuti, ending a nearly two-year-long fallout between the two public figures.
In a surprising gesture of reconciliation, AY reached out to Seun Kuti via social media, sharing a peace-offering message that signaled the end of their long-standing rift.
The comedian posted on Instagram, tagging Seun in the message.
“A big shoutout to my brother, Seun Kuti. Sometimes, misunderstandings happen, but what matters is that love and respect always find their way back,” AY wrote.
The feud between the two entertainers dates back to November 2023, when they engaged in a heated exchange on social media.
Their clash, which quickly made headlines, involved both parties throwing verbal jabs in a widely-discussed public spat.
With the reconciliation, fans and colleagues have expressed hope that the renewed camaraderie between the comedian and the musician will foster unity within the Nigerian entertainment industry.
