Ace comedian and filmmaker, Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, has said his problems started after he declared his support for the Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate in the last election, Peter Obi.

He said despite his troubles, he didn’t regret supporting Obi.

AY spoke at the Easter edition of his comedy show, AY Live, in Lagos on Sunday.

He said, “I supported Peter Obi [in the last presidential election]. I do not regret supporting Peter Obi. That was when my problems started.

“The decision I made to support Peter Obi is not because I am a politician but because I want change. I want Nigeria to become better. I am not a politician. I know nothing about politics. After I started campaigning for Obi on social media, my house got burnt. After God, the next person you should fear and respect is government. Try government, they will shock you.”
