Now, another comedian, Julius Agwu, has shared his thoughts on the ongoing feud between AY and Basketmouth. Speaking in an interview with Naija FM, Agwu stated that there’s more to their feud than just the N30,000 payment. He insisted that there may be reasons Basketmouth is upset with AY, which he has not made clear.

“I don’t think it’s just N30,000. Maybe there’s more. Yes, na, we are at backstage we don’t know. There’s more to it that has not been made known,” Agwu said. “So it depends on them. Maybe Basketmouth is angry about another thing but has not made it clear.”

The feud between AY and Basketmouth has been a topic of discussion among fans and industry insiders alike. While both parties have not explicitly stated the reason for their rift, it’s clear that there are some unresolved issues between them.
