Seun Kuti has reacted to famous Nigerian stand up comedian, Ayo Makun, simply known as AY’s rant about rejecting his national honour award.

Ayo Makun shared a tweet addressing trolls who queried him for not rejecting the honour bestowed on him by the government.

The father of two noted that a national honour is the highest recognition anyone could get for his or her contributions to nation building, and he is more than happy to accept the honour.

He tweeted, “Those of you shaming or asking me to reject ‘A National Honour’ are clearly missing a vital point.

Our country is bigger and more important than any president or political party awarding it. National honour is the highest recognition anyone can get for his or her contributions to nation building.

So my allegiance is to a country where I have contributed my own quota, and I am more than happy to be rewarded by the same nation.”

In reaction, Seun Kuti took to Instagram to shade Ayo Makun for giving an explanation about receiving the award.

Seun Kuti iterated that the National Award is based on a nomination by a presidential committee on the approval of the president. He taunted the comedian to receive his ‘Buhari’ award.

“Let me reiterate, No be a public opinion poll them take dey choose national award na by presidential committee then the president will accept the nomination of certain people. In as much as it’s a national honour, it’s a presidential appointment. Biko, receive ur BUHARI award and stop to dey Shalaye!!!”
