Nigerian comedian and actor Bovi has sparked fresh debate over the long-running Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo rivalry after joking that people should avoid doing business with anyone who insists Ronaldo is a better footballer than Messi.
Speaking in a video shared on his Instagram page, Bovi said asking a potential business partner about the famous football debate could reveal how they perceive reality.
He explained that there is nothing wrong with supporting Ronaldo or even calling him the Greatest of All Time, but claimed that anyone who confidently argues Ronaldo is a better footballer than Messi should be approached with caution.
According to the comedian, such individuals may have a tendency to distort obvious facts to suit personal beliefs, a mindset he suggested could influence business decisions.
His comments have since generated widespread reactions online, with football fans once again divided over the enduring rivalry between the two global football icons.
