However, in a viral video shared on his Instagram page on Saturday, Basketmouth made it clear that he had no intention of getting involved in the controversy.The comedian, who faced public scrutiny during his own divorce in 2022, explained that he wanted to avoid unnecessary drama.
“I have been receiving lots of emails and DMs from people asking why I don’t want to get involved in Tuface and Annie’s matters. I have known 2Face for 27 years and I met Annie 24 years ago.
“First of all, I’m not in any position to get involved because I’m not qualified at all. Make I no go talk the one wey go make people remember my own, con dey drag my head.
“This new year 2025, wey we just enter, I’m just trying to have an undraggable year. Please, don’t push me,” he said.
