Basketmouth, AY were living in my boys’ quarters – Alibaba

Atunyota Alleluya Akpobome, commonly known as Alibaba, a veteran Nigerian comedian, has disclosed that he previously hosted rival comedians Basketmouth and AY Makun.

He claimed the two were living in his Boy’s Quarters years ago, when they were just starting out in their professions.

In the most recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast, co-hosted by actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, aka Nedu, the ‘King of Comedy’ revealed this.

He said, “Basketmouth and AY… When you think about it, these are people who were living in BQ [boys’ quarters] with me back in the days.”

Kanyidaily reports Basketmouth and AY were engaged in a 17-year-old rift until recently when the former publicly apologised to the latter.

Basketmouth also sent an invite to his former rival, AY, to attend his recent comedy show at the Eko Hotel & Suites in Lagos.

Kanyidaily recalls that Alibaba revealed why he and Pawpaw were denied entry into Canada.
