Frank Edoho tackles troll who body shamed Ayra Starr

Nigerian TV show host, Frank Edoho has stood in defense of popular songstress, Ayra Starr who recently came under heavy criticism for ‘disrespecting’ Fuji/Highlife veteran, King Sunny Ade.

It was reported on Saturday that Ayra, born, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe apologised for not greeting King Ade respectfully at the Afrozons pre-Grammy party in Lagos state.

A trending video captured her just before she got up on stage, as she paid respects to some VIPs, and gave the legendary musician a handshake instead of prostrating as many expected.

Upon being bombarded with comments and messages from angry fans, the Mavin Princess decided to apologise through Twitter and clarified that she did not see King Sunny Ade’s face properly.

A young man known as Alfred Marshh was not satisfied with he explanation, so he stated that the songstress is overrated and he can never date a person with her type of physical features.

“Ayra Starr is overated, Who she think say she be, Flat nyash, Provoking breast. I can never ever date such human being,” he tweeted.

In response, Edoho chided him for bodyshaming the singer and proceeded to insult Alfred by noting that if someone does same to him he will complain.

He wrote; “You insulted her over nothing. If someone told you that your nose looks like the muzzle of a double barrel shotgun, you will start complaining.”
