Bright Okpocha, also known as Basketmouth, a well-known comedian, has extended an invitation to his former rival and colleague, AY Makun, to join him at his concert in Lagos on Sunday.
This invitation comes after publicly apologizing to AY and resolving their 17-year-old feud.
Despite the friendly gesture, Basketmouth clarified that AY will not be performing or making an appearance on stage at the scripted event taking place tonight at the Eko Hotel & Suites.
Speaking in a recent interview with Arise TV, Basketmouth said, “AY is not on the bill to perform but he has got a ticket. He’s attending. I sent him his ticket a few days ago.
“I knew a lot of people have been asking, ‘Is he [AY] gonna perform?’ He’s not on the bill.
“In actual fact, I don’t have that many comedians on the bill. I know Bovi is introducing me. Senator, Dan The Humorous and Aproko from Abuja are performing. I got a few people from Ghana as well.
“AY can’t even make a cameo because my show is already designed. We are recording for TV so it’s a three-hour set. As we speak the guys directing and producing they just came into the country about a few days ago.
“And before they even landed, we had already sealed the whole flow of the show. It’s not the kind of show where anybody would just get on stage. It’s not that kind of show. Everything is timed. Precision to perfection.” (Sic)
