Popular comedian, Bovi is currently a subject of social media controversy after making a huge #EndSARS statement with his t-shirt at the 14th edition of Headies Awards.

In what appeared to be an action to reference the victims of Tuesday, October 20, 2020 onslaught of peaceful #EndSARS protesters at Lekki Tollgate plaza in Lagos, the humour merchant who’s co-hosting the show, wore a t-shirt showing a blood-stained Nigerian flag.

Bovi’s dressing has however attracted reactions from Nigerians, who took to their social media pages to commend the comedian.
