Comedian and filmmaker Ayo Makun, also known as AY, revealed that his challenges began following his public endorsement of Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the previous election.
Despite facing difficulties as a result, AY stands by his decision to support Obi. The statement was made during the latest Easter edition of AY Live in Lagos over the weekend.
He said:
“I supported Peter Obi [in the last presidential election]. I do not regret supporting Peter Obi. That was when my problems started.
“The decision I made to support Peter Obi is not because I am a politician but because I want change. I want Nigeria to become better. I am not a politician. I know nothing about politics. After I started campaigning for Obi on social media, my house got burnt. After God, the next person you should fear and respect is government. Try government, they will shock you.”
