‘The Military Truly Humbled Me’ – Cute Abiola Reflects on 30 Days in Detention

Nigerian skitmaker and content creator, Abdulgafar Ahmad popularly known as Cute Abiola is reflecting on his time spent in detention.

We reported in November 2021 that the comedian had spent 10 days in Navy detention. The comedian was said to have been missing when his colleague in the comedy industry, Debo Adedayo aka Mr Macaroni, raised the alarm that he was nowhere to be found after reporting at his office in Navy Town, Lagos.

Two days after the alarm was raised, a Navy commander had announced that the comic actor wasn’t missing but was detained for flouting the military laws by posting a video of himself in military uniform on social media, an act which was said to violate the armed forces’ social media policy.

The comedian was later released after 18 days to serve his punishment after he was tried for misconduct and indiscipline.

Reminiscing on the past, Cute Abiola admitted that the military really humbled him as he noted how he spent 30 days inside the cell. However, he remains grateful to the Armed Forces.

“30 days Inside Cell 2021 ! The military really humbled me !!!! Thank you Armed Forces”.
