Ace Nigerian comedian and actor, Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, has reacted to the separation between legendary musician, Innocent Idibia popularly known as 2Face and his wife, Annie Idibia.

AY who spoke via his verified X handle on Tuesday addressed the growing trend of public interference in private marital issues, urging people to prioritize empathy over sensationalism.

“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,” AY wrote.

The comedian called attention to the real lives affected by such public discourse, emphasizing that the unnecessary drama and invasive commentaries often lead to emotional and psychological harm.
