There is more to the AY and Basketmouth beef than the supposed N30,000, Julius Agwu said in a recent interview with Naija 102fm.
Ay Makun claimed during an interview with Chude Jideonwo that the long standing riff between him and his colleague, Bright Opkocha was sparked off because of an unpaid N30,000 which was supposed to be a payment for a performance on behalf of Basketmouth.
However, he didn’t state if the money was paid to him but Basketmouth during his interview with Nedu on the ‘Honest Bunch’ podcast revealed AY was paid the money ultimately.
Basketmouth also said the assumed cause of their conflict was due to an unpaid N30,000 as AY claimed but was triggered by something else which he did not clearly state.
He explained Ay said something, which he (Basketmouth) heard while disassociating himself as being one of Makun’s friends.
Discussing the clash between his fellow colleagues with the radio host on Naija FM, Julius Agwu suggested the issue was certainly something else other than the money which AY claimed.
He also opened up on how AY allegedly took over the date of his once popular show ‘Laugh 4 Christ Sake’ which was always celebrated on Easter day and cut the phone on his neck when he called to discuss the matter with him.
Expressing himself in pidgin English, Julius Agwu said: I no think say na just the N30,000 o ! Maybe there’s more. Na we dey back stage, so, we no go fit know. Maybe, e get another thing wey dey vex dem. Wey dem carry for mind, carry for mind wey make dem no fit come together.
“You know, when you talk about certain things like ‘Laugh 4 Christ Sake’, you know say I don start am since. It was even celebrated every Easter Sunday.
“Make I talk now. ‘Laugh 4 Christ sake’ na every Easter Sunday before AY begin do promo, say him dey do one show. I call AY dey talk to am say AY, that day is my date o! AY cut phone for my neck. I am sure, I dey sure.
“So based on Basketmouth and AY dey quarrel say N30,000 naim cause am; it depends. Basketmouth dey vex for another thing, but he no bring am clear. That’s the fact.”
