Nigerian comedian and movie producer Bright Okpocha, popularly known as Basketmouth, has found himself in an amusing family drama after his daughter publicly called him out for “embarrassing” the family.

Taking to Instagram, Basketmouth shared a video of a FaceTime conversation with his daughter, during which she begged him to stop dancing while promoting his new movie.

In the exchange, she urged her father to tone down his antics, describing them as mortifying for the family.

“Hello, Daddy,” she began, “I know you’re trying to promote your new movie, but can you stop with the dance? You’re embarrassing the entire Okpocha clan. Just stop; your movie will sell.”

The comedian, known for his quick wit, took the playful criticism in stride, but not without throwing a jab at netizens. On his Twitter page, Basketmouth jokingly blamed fans for putting him in such a predicament.

“See what you people have done now, making me embarrass my children. I used to think that I was the pride of my family,” he tweeted.
