“When I first landed at Churchill Show, he was the first person to invite me to perform at a function as he believed in my abilities. Anytime he landed a side hustle, say emceeing in a wedding, he would invite me to accompany him. That really strengthened our bond. And fellow comedians knew it,” said MCA Tricky.

Spiritual man

Tricky further reveals that Ayeiya was a very God fearing man even though he gave out the impression he was bad boy. Tricky says the late comedian inspired him to get saved.

“On the outside, he gave an impression of being a ‘bad boy’ but in reality, he was one spiritual man. He loved to end his shows calling on the audience to get saved, something that he also used to tell me. Whenever he got personal with a fellow comedian, he would start preaching to them.”
