Fast-rising Nigerian songstress, Ayra Starr has tendered a public apology to legendary musician, King Sunny Ade for disrespecting him at an event.
The ‘Sabi Girl’ crooner was captured shaking hands with King Sunny Ade in a recently released viral video.
Social media users, however, harshly criticised Ayra Starr, calling her an uncultured Nigerian woman and claiming that her interactions with the legendary singer was impolite.
The singer addressed the allegation and gave an explanation for her conduct, apologising for the disrespect.
The lights at the occasion, according to Ayra Starr, prevented her from initially recognising King Sunny Ade, but she later went back to make amends.
