1Popular Yoruba comic actor, Olaniyi Afonja, a.k.a. Sanyeri, has been accused of obtaining millions of naira from some of his fans in a dishonest way through his wedding ceremony on December 1, 2013, Sunday. The comic actor has reportedly sold some poor-quality ankara fabrics known as ‘aso ebi’, for N20,000. The market price for the clothing material he had allegedly offered was put at N2,500. Sanyeri has reportedly ordered that the ‘aso ebi’ would serve as gate pass to his wedding, which was held at Anchor Event Centre, Agidingbi, Ikeja, Lagos. Those willing to attend the wedding were asked to pay directly into the actor’s account before getting their fabric material. This made it impossible for them to reject or return poor-quality ankara after making the payment. Therefore, those at the wedding were disappointed at what they saw at the event, because there was no justification for paying such an amount to get the ‘aso ebi’. Attempts made by Nigeriafilms.com to contact Sanyeri for comments proved abortive as, his phone number remained switched off. The comic actor and his wife had been living together for eight years before their marriage on December 1, 2013, Sunday. They have two children together.
