Popular Nigerian Comedian Ayo Makun, aka AY, has said he will protect his daughter’s mental health due to rumours about his marriage saga.
In a recent news making rounds about his marriage hitting the rock, comedian AY in an Instagram post, acknowledged the rumours admitting to actions he is not proud to share.
“Many people believe that staying silent simply means that one is incapable of dealing with issues. Projecting a negative narrative against someone who is not struggling to defend himself doesn’t mean he is weak.
“Some of us are just logical enough to understand the difference between opinions, values, beliefs, and facts.
“The personality and ability that I possess simply confirm that I have reached that stage in my life, where I can not be entertaining the public with deep personal family issues. They just might be too much to handle concerning the individuals involved.
“Not even when I have a grown-up daughter who has access to social media. Her mental health needs to be protected from seeing things she can not be proud of online”, he said.
The comedian assured Nigerians that he is not ready to compromise his family values.
” It is one thing to watch my friendship/marriage of 20 years slip off my hands, but it is another thing for the parties involved to understand how to appropriate the blame in a space that is designed for most women to always play the victims and win.
” I can tell you for free that no one is completely innocent enough to cast stones. Presently, I am loving the way that lies about me in all these blogs are travelling faster than the truth”, he said.
AY further noted that the painful truth will beat away all the lies.
