Nigerian comedian, Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, has written a petition to the police against one Agozi Samuel over his claim that he is having an affair with actor Yul Edochie’s first wife, May Edochie.
Samuel in a post on his Facebook page, had alleged that AY was having an affair with May and was planning to marry her following the dissolution of her marriage to Yul.
The comedian has now petitioned the Delta State Police Command over the allegations.
In the petition dated January 24, AY, through his lawyers, AY accused Agozi of criminal defamation and cyberstalking and requested his arrest and prosecution.
The petition party read, “The said publication alleges that our client is involved in an extramarital affair with one May Eodchie, the wife of Yul Eodchie and that our client was responsible for the marital crisis between May and her husband.”
He described the allegation as “baseless and untrue.”
He added that the allegation has affected his brand and caused a great blow to his personal life, career, integrity and reputation among friends, business associates, and the general public.
AY urged the police to take immediate action in investigating and apprehending Agozi Samuel as evidence of defamation and cyberbullying has been provided.
