Nigerian comedian, Abovi Ugboma popularly known as Bovi, has dismissed claims that his colleague, Julius Agwu, is critically ill.

Reports stating that the funnyman and actor has been battling an undisclosed ailment, started making rounds on social media on Friday.

Some users had also claimed that his wife abandoned him due to the condition.

However, in a Twitter post, Bovi, disclaimed the rumours, and asked the public to disregard such rumours.

The 42-year-old entertainer said he and Agwu, Basketmouth as well as Buchi were together at a club as of Wednesday night.

He wrote;

“Me, Julius Agwu, Save, Buchi and Basketmouth was in the club day before yesterday. Wednesday night to be precise. Two nights ago to be exact. Just saying.” 

But seemingly unsatisfied with his post, a Twitter user asked: “that what exactly?”

“he (Agwu) is not sick,” Bovi responded.

Julius Agwu’s absence from social media has continued to induce worry in his fans about his health status.

The comedian’s last Instagram post was on September 30, 2020.
