Comedian Basketmouth recently gave a shout out to one of Nigeria’s richest business mogul on Monday and people are wondering why.

Basketmouth, real name Bright Okpocha, posted a picture of the chairman of Forte Oil Plc, Femi Otedola describing him as a ‘crowd of many men’. He stylised the name, ending it with the dollar currency sign instead of the normal Otedola.

“Mr. Femi Ote$ and £. You are a man? Actually…..you’re a crowd of many men!!! God bless you sir,” the comedian wrote on Instagram.

The effect of the shout out and the stylised name was not lost on people as the started suggesting reasons for Basket mouths shout out. Many folks suggested that the business mogul has given the 38-year-old who recently lost his mother some money. Some folks simply said amen to the prayer.

What do you think? Why did Basketmouth hail Otedola?
