Her disrespectful behavior led to backlash and Ayra Starr took to her Twitter page to tender a deep apology, referring to him as her uncle and explaining herself.
Ayra noted how she can’t be disrespectful to her elders as she is a proper Yoruba girl.
Still, on her apology tour, Ayra Starr in an interview, explained further, reiterating that the place was dark, hence she didn’t know it was him.
She noted how the clip that went viral, was shortened to paint her in a bad light. Describing it as an honest mistake, she revealed that she went back to greet him properly after she was informed of his presence.
“An hour after I saw that, like when the video was posted, immediately I just acted. Like it wasn’t even up to an hour, I just put up my apology.
It was an honest mistake, literally, it was dark. I went back to greet everybody and the video started after I greeted Mama Burna Boy, and that short clip wasn’t what it was at all.
When they told me it was King Sunny Ade, I went back to greet him properly but the camera didn’t capture that”.
