Desist From Insulting Iwobi – AY
Nigerian comedian, Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, has appealed to Nigerians to stop insulting or cyber bullying Alex Iwobi.
AY, on his Instagram page, urged fans of Super Eagles to stop the cyber bullying on Iwobi – as it is not a crime to represent his fatherland.
Recall that Iwobi was one of the players who came under criticism following Nigeria’s loss to Ivory Coast on Sunday, February 11 ,2024, in the AFCON 2023 final match
Nigerian comedian, Ayo Makun, a.k.a AY, has appealed to Nigerians to stop insulting Alex Iwobi because of the loss of the final match.
AY, on his Instagram page, said fans of Super Eagles should stop the cyber bullying on Iwobi as representing his fatherland in the AFCON tournament should be seen as an act of national service and patriotism.
The Fulham star deleted all the pictures he uploaded on his official Instagram page after the AFCON final.
The comedian called on Nigerians to think beyond personal interests and look at the negative effects of their ‘debasing’ actions.
“Anyone can become a victim of cyberbullying. Harmful information posted on the internet can spread far and wide at an instant, and it is always difficult to be deleted, completely. The immediacy of the spread makes it hard for victims to defend themselves or take precautions. The harm caused by cyberbullying is always ignored by computer or mobile phone users.
“It is so sad to see how you all have exhibited various forms of cyberbullying on a young man whose only crime was to come and represent his father land. Tomorrow, you all will still be wondering why the likes of Saka and others are never going to play for Nigeria?
“It’s time to think beyond your personal interests and look at the negative effects of your evil actions.
“Let’s help promote the culture of care and respect on the internet and prevent cyberbullying,” he wrote.

Actress Patience Ozukor: I Rejected The Name-Tag ‘Liz Benson of Enugu’ On Me, To Have My Own Name-Tag ‘Patience Ozukor’
Nollywood veteran actress, Patience Ozokwor, has disclosed and talked about how people tried to impose titles and name-tags on her at the beginning of her career and how she handled it.
The veteran actress said when she began her acting career, people tried to compare her with legendary actress, Liz Benson, by tagging her as ‘Liz Benson of Enugu’ but she rejected the tag because she believes they are both unique.
She disclosed that she also rejected suggestions to answer her husband’s first name as her surname and instead chose to bear his family name.
She actually disclosed this in an interview session via a media platform.
Her words: “I don’t know how it started, all I know was that when I started my acting career and people started recognizing this woman from Enugu.”
“So, there was a time I came to Lagos for a shoot and people started saying, ‘That’s her, this woman from Enugu.’ They said, “You’re the ‘Liz Benson of Enugu.”
“I said, ‘No, with all due respect, I don’t want to be like Liz Benson, I want to be myself. I am ‘Patience Ozokwor of Enugu’.”
“And some people came and said, ‘You don’t even need to answer Patience Ozokwor again. Answer your husband’s first name Edmund; Patience Edmund.’
“I said, ‘No, because in Igbo land, you’re not just married by one man, you’re married by a family. I don’t know about other tribes.”
“So, my husband’s people, their name is Ozokwor. When you mention Ozokwor in any part of this world, people who know the Ozokwors would say ‘I know where she comes from’,” she concluded.
