Popular Nigerian filmmaker and comedian Ayo Makun, widely known as AY, has voiced his frustration over the limited support he receives from fellow men despite his relentless efforts in the entertainment industry.

Taking to his X handle, AY claimed that men often prefer to uplift women rather than their male counterparts. He further highlighted that he is the only male Nigerian filmmaker who has not abandoned the industry due to inadequate support.

In his post, AY wrote, “One day, men will tell each other ‘what man did to man.’ We work tirelessly to stay relevant and fulfill our responsibilities. Must we grow breasts and hips to gain the support of other men? I remain the last man standing in filmmaking who hasn’t given up.”
