Basketmouth apologizes over attack on Goodluck Jonathan

Veteran Nigerian comedian, Basketmouth, has withdrawn his statement on the state of the nation, apologizing to former president, Goodluck Jonathan for disrespecting him.

In his last Instagram post, the comedian debunked rumors that he was one of the advocates for the emergence of Buhari’s administration.

He aired his stance on his alleged involvement in politics.

He said he never campaigned for President Buhari or any other politician (including former president, Jonathan).

He wrote: “Truth of the matter is that I would have voted anyone that could speak two words of English against Ex-president Goodluck Jonathan and that’s strictly based on the amount of greed and selfishness we witnessed from members of his (Jonathan’s) administration in the 6 years that he sat on the rock.

“I have said it numerous times that I am not a politician hence I try not to dabble in politics. However I think a few people interpret crying out against injustice by the one as campaign for the other.”

But barely 24 hours after airing his stance, Basketmouth apologized for appearing as though ‘disrespectful’ to Jonathan.

He, however, retracted his statement, stating he has ‘nothing but respect’ for the former president.

He wrote: “I have to sincerely apologise at this point that in expressing my opinion in my last post which was primarily to clear the air about who I campaigned, supported or rooted for or didn’t, I was disrespectful to a man I have nothing but respect.

“The last President may have had some wrong advisers and consequently decisions were made that will eventually impact on the economy, however I am sorry if it came across as an attack on the man Goodluck Ebele Jonathan.

“We all desired a CHANGE, majority voted for it, now we have it, it is definitely a process, a tough one because I know the hustle is real…believe me, I know.

“I trust it can only get better, let’s just try to be patient,” he added.

Keep givn urself false hope...mtchew

Basketmouth has been behaving like ahithophels aka afonjas lately...they speak from both sides of their mouth. They are irrational, can't think things through, they all voted for GMD thinking that miracle will have...expecting a miracle to happen from a man without secondary school degree? SMH.

“Truth of the matter is that I would have voted anyone that could speak two words of English against Ex-president Goodluck Jonathan and that’s strictly based on the amount of greed and selfishness we witnessed from members of his (Jonathan’s) administration in the 6 years that he sat on the rock.

Basket Mouth Said yesterday...


Ipob Vandals keep on twisting people's words ...yeye people..

He smoke weed..... Eyes come clear am.

Greed, he's not getting what he was promised from the government he campaigned for! APC, canceling all promises.

Apology "rejected"

To the tower off his head
Signed,

You wish....He just lambasted your ineffectual Buffon twi days ago.....then some his ipob yoots followers were crying and begging to apologize for using offensive words to describe their ogogoro thin god....and he just did...

So show me where he regreted voting out the corrupt jonathan,?

What else can anyone expect from a porous mouth called basket?

Ongoing defenceless defence.

Ok.... Wat of Beremx

bro basket,it seem you finally took my advice but it may have been a tad too late because the mediocre you vocally campaigned and voted for is already in power;you have to live with the hash realities of that!

Ok

The above words were what turned many supposedly wise people into zombies. Just personal hatred for the man called GEJ and not because the dullard can do better. Today they are repeatedly shouting patience patience patience as if they see any hope anywhere.

The fear of avengers is the begining of wisdom...

Would have been better if he kept mute and maintained his silence.

From my primary school, I learnt that we have seven wonders of the world. Now, Nigeria is ready to add the 8th, (if that number had not changed) should this present economic situation improve to where APC took over. We will be glad to give them the credit. we don't demand for much. Only keep it from where you met it.

We wailers are OK as we are, we don't need crowd, please!

Why apologising?

Akuko Mike Ejeagha!

Anyways, osite taa di mma, odiwara gboo. We forgive you, Basket. But make sure you stitch that basket mouth of yours so as not to bring you trouble.

u beta do so before dey gun u down

Too late oga

That's real maturity on the part of a ss/se public figure. I really must commend his diplomacy and tactical insight in the political stratosphere unlike others from d se/ss who know nothing but to wail and go about with sentimental ethnic bias thinking massive looting and corruption under their clueless hero is better than a work in progress under buhari. Thumbs up bright.. U said it all.

Part of the few good men remaining in our nation. Truth hurts.

Idiot you sold your brother for silver and gold.
You felt for small peanut.

U need no apology. Its clear to the blind, audible to the deaf that Gej with his criminals destroyed everything the country supposed to use for today's austerity. Where is Diesani today, where is obanikoro, among others. They know what they have done and that is why they are running here and there. There can never be peace for the wicked. They will eventually pay for their sins unless they will not step into this country again.

Another zombie bites the dust.
SMH.
