Ali Baba

Ace Entertainer Ali Baba, popularly referred to as the King of Comedy in Nigeria once rendered a well meant Public service he almost regretted.

The comedian took to Instagram a few minutes ago to recount memories of the day he was almost mobbed by a set of angry youths in Warri, Delta State, Nigeria.

The education of our minds as a people is a very important tangent in The Whole efforts to have a better country. Met someone today who reminded me of how he and some people had to rescue me from the hands of some angry youths in Warri in 2008.

I had checked into Hotel Excel and wanted to another hotel down the road that our guys were checked into. There was a long queue of vehicles, trying to avoid a very deep and wide pothole. And it had caused the traffic to build up. Anyway, I came down and looked at the bad spot.

It was bad. But thought that it would make a difference if broken blocks were poured into the bad portions, just to let the traffic flow better till the place was repaired. Anyway, since I was there for 4 days, one day was gone, I called my guys in Warri to arrange for 2 trucks of rubble to be poured in.

And went on to the hotel down the road. About 2 hours later, the driver of the tipper and the guys supervising the filling were beaten up and asked to call who sent them. I rushed to the scene and met about 12 youths and all of them asking what gave me the audacity to start work without settling them. I introduced myself and one of them said, “So because you be Ali Baba, make we relocate?”

I then told them what had mad me do it. And added that if they were that bitter about it, I was very sorry. I told the 2 drivers who had been told to kneel by the road to take back the rubbles. That was when the man I ran into today, a known Warri guy, came to resolve it.

He begged me not to take back the rubbles, since they had been bought and said we should forget all the drama. At this time, one of their Councilors had been called to the scene. He apologized and even joined in spreading the rubbles. Long story short, and Needless to mention that the traffic had built up all the way to Warri/Sapele Road. But soon after the rubbles were evenly spread, the traffic flowed seamlessly.

At the point I was about to leave, some Okumagba Layout boys had been informed and were ready to come kpokpo the area. There were some slaps, brushing, kwaking, and some threats, that would have led to some serious gbege, thanks to the arrival of 2 Military patrol!

Williams Uchemba quits public gym to focus on Heaven

Nollywood actor and filmmaker, Williams Uchemba, has expressed his concerns about women who dress provocatively at the gym.

He recently announced that he has stopped attending public gyms due to the temptation caused by such attire, as he aims to avoid distractions and focus on his spiritual journey.

In response to the issue, Uchemba has taken the initiative to establish a gym at home to maintain his fitness routine without encountering these distractions.

The Nollywood actor is publicly appealing to women attending gyms to dress modestly, emphasizing that the increasing trend of indecent dressing in such settings is troubling.

Taking to his social media platform, Uchemba addressed the matter directly, urging women to reconsider their attire choices for the sake of male gym-goers’ focus and spiritual well-being.

“Ladies, should all the men stop coming to the gym? Because your indecent dressing is getting out of hand. It’s becoming appalling. I’m tired,” he expressed.

“Please, try and dress decently to the gym. Some men are determined to make heaven, please don’t distract us. Every time one comes to the gym, he is forced to see what he didn’t intend to see.”

Uchemba humorously lamented the situation, indicating that he has taken the drastic step of setting up a gym at home to avoid the temptation altogether. He emphasized his commitment to maintaining a focused and spiritually-aligned lifestyle, even if it meant sacrificing the convenience of a public gym.

“You ladies have made up your mind to prevent Nigerian men from going to heaven but it won’t work because I’ve left the gym. I’ve set up a gym in my house because I cannot cope. I want to make heaven,” he concluded.
