KSA isn’t your uncle, he’s your grandpa: Reactions trail Ayra Starr’s apology

KSA isn’t your uncle, he’s your grandpa: Reactions trail Ayra Starr’s apology

Social media users have continued to react differently to the apology tendered by Grammy Award-nominated artist, Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, popularly known as Ayra Starr, after a video of her seemingly disrespecting the Juju maestro went viral on the internet.

Tribune Online reports that the 21-year-old took to her verified X account on Saturday to apologize after she was captured extending her hands to greet King Sunny Ade at the Afrozobs Pre-Grammy party presented by Heineken.

Apologising over the development, Ayra Starr tweeted, “I’m so sorry , I had just walked in and all the lights and nerves didn’t let me see but i came back around to greet everyone properly, I have never been that girl to be disrespectful, I’m a proper Yoruba girlllll and the video didn’t start until after I’d greeted burna’s mom ! I’m very sorry to the  legend, uncle and King Sunny Ade.”

Mixed reactions have, however, continued to trail the apology. While some berated her for addressing the music legend as uncle, others praised the “Rush” crooner for owning up to her mistake and tendering an apology.
