AY and I just grew apart - Bovi

Talented and popular comedian, Bovi Ugboma has opened up on his poor relationship with his colleague, AY Makun saying he thinks they only grew apart.

“I think we just grew apart. I like to do my own thing my own way and if your style is different from my style we just grow apart basically but we cool. When I see him I say what’s up,” Bovi stated in an interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Rubbin Minds.

Bovi also emphasized that he does not go any closer to his colleagues whose lifestyle do not match with his.

“It’s not because of anything but if you have a way you operate and it is not in sync with the way I operate and if that offends my spirit, I’ll just stay away.

"I’m sure some people don’t like me and that’s cool. Even in the church, there is friction.

"I don’t know … personally I don’t think everybody can like each other but one thing I know is they don’t necessarily hate each other. It is a tricky situation.

“As regards the shows, in the beginning, I use to do everybody’s show but now I want to do it the way it is internationally accepted,” he said.

He added that he would not like to be on a comedy show where the organiser who is also a comedian would rather feed off his (Bovi) talent.

“If we are doing a nite of thousand laughs, I am willing to be on that platform but it got to the point where I am like I can’t be on a show that is run by a comedian’s name and every one feature but you the comedian come on your own show and you are not telling jokes.

“Rather you are just MCing and bringing everyone on stage then we go home and you make all the money.

"I want to do a show and have a command of my performance like an album.”
