Nigerian stand-up comedian, AY Makun, has responded strongly to online critics who have been attacking 2Face [/b]following his announcement that he and his wife, Annie Idibia, are heading towards a divorce.
The announcement by 2Face shocked social media as he revealed that he and his wife, Annie Idibia, would soon be divorcing.
Amidst the ongoing discussions and criticisms surrounding 2Face and Annie's marital issues, AY Makun has come to the defense of his colleague. The comedian expressed his support for 2Face while firing back at critics who have been fueling the drama online.
AY Makun criticized the individuals blaming the couple for their marital crisis and suggested that people should focus on addressing the deeper issues affecting the institution of marriage, rather than casting blame on the individuals involved. He emphasized that no one enters a marriage with the intention to fail, and he expressed his frustration at seeing online trolls and media outlets sensationalizing the issue for attention and views at the expense of those going through the pain of a broken relationship.
He shared his thoughts on social media, stating: “Instead of casting blame in broken marriages that you know nothing about, why not focus on the reasons why the institution itself is under attack? No one goes in with a plan to fail. It’s troubling to see online in-laws and blogs revel in sensationalism, often at the expense of those hurting. Real lives are involved—let’s choose empathy over drama and content. Some of you will never rest until you lead a fellow human to suicide”.
The comedian’s comments have stirred mixed reactions from netizens, with many expressing support for his stance on empathy and criticizing those who profit from other people's pain.
