Nigerian comedian Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, is facing backlash on social media following a controversial post confirming the end of his marriage with Mabel Makun.

Speculation suggests that the couple's relationship ended due to alleged infidelity.

In a statement on his Instagram page, AY confirmed the dissolution of his marriage but expressed his reluctance to share personal family matters with the public.

He acknowledged engaging in regrettable actions and expressed sadness over the breakdown of his 20-year marriage and friendship.

The benefits of marriage are far beyond children, partnership, team work, companionship, etc sharing life with someone is a greatest privilege to have in this lifetime, your daughter has the right to her privacy and exposing her in this moment is rather not a very wise choice. Respect her privacy and her keep her out of this, she would prefer her parents together I’m sure, don’t weaponize your child terming her “benefits” the whole world knows she is, don’t just name it, a responsible man should stomach his pride in such a moment and refrain from any actions that will cause more lashing out and further exposing his family to public debate.”

Perhaps your ex wife is with the baby reason for you to post and daughter “benefit” Apparently you have shared the kids. Michelle is your gain and the baby is your ex wife’.. Do better you be Ose”

cute_mjt wrote: “My respect for AY is enormous. However, this post isn’t necessary. ‘Benefit’? People are wise while many can read meanings. This post isn’t necessary…. Ofcourse we all know what you were referring to… If it’s all you benefitted from the 20years marriage then you never loved and valued your wife. This is outright disrespect. Marriage is beyond child benefit. It’s lifetime respect, value and oneness…. Your post is out of order sir or the timing is wrong…. You can do better…. May you all find reason to settle. Love and light”
