Nigerian ace comedian Bovi Ugboma says he has been banned from traveling to the United States of America. 

Bovi revealed this development during a Q and A session on his instastories, on April 25, when he was asked if he could hold a comedy show in Massachusetts.

“I’m banned in the U.S.A.,” the comedian responded.

Responding to a follow up question on why he was banned, the comic star said “Ill luck. Met a Charity-like-visa issuing officer. Egos clashed. I got labeled,” making a reference to one of the characters on the YouTube comedy series “Visa on Arrival”.

This is not the first time the Comic actor has shared his traveling woes. In February, he revealed that he was almost accused of stealing at a London hotel.

When also asked during the Q and A session why he and comedian Ayo ‘AY’ Makun do not perform at each other’s shows, he responded, “Have you ever seen Chris Rock at a Henry Hart show?”
