Nollywood actress Etinosa Idemudia has come to the defence of comedian Ayo Makun, better known as AY, following the backlash over his disrupted Cardiff show.
In a post shared on her Instagram page, she called out the internet for waiting for bad news while ignoring the comedian's successful shows.
Etinosa lamented that nobody posted about AY's successful shows across the UK, but the moment things went wrong in Cardiff, the internet went into a frenzy with narratives and accusations.
She also criticized blogs for suddenly posting his show for free just because it was "hot news," adding that their bitter audience gathers like frustrated witches to cast aspersions in the name of judgment.
The actress noted that people didn't even care to find out what was happening, especially since AY is not a kid or an unprofessional.
She wrote:
"AY has been showing up to every venue of his comedy tour and spreading joy to his UK fans but no blog posted it.. But tonight for some reasons beyond his control he could not show up at Cardiff. Watch the internet go up in a frenzy. Narratives and accusations flying everywhere. Blogs are suddenly posting his show for free because it's Hot News. Their bitter audience will gather like frustrated witches to cast aspersions and project their bitter souls in the name of judgment. May God heal us all"
"So sad that good news is no news. Nobody posted his successful shows. Nobody even cared to find out what's happening since AY is not a kid or an unprofessional. Everyone waiting for bad news so they can rush, post and have hot takes. Same thing with Eric Gugua show. God forbid. May God grant bros AY grace. Regards."
The Nigerian Voice recalls that blogs shared videos of fans complaining over AY's disrupted Cardiff show, where attendees waited for hours for a performance that never started.
