Nigerian skit maker and content creator Abdulgafar Ahmad, popularly known as Cute Abiola, has recalled one of the most challenging moments he experienced while still in the Navy.
In November 2021, the comedian was reportedly detained for ten days by the Navy. Abiola was jailed for violating military laws, particularly the policy against broadcasting videos of oneself in military uniform on social media.
A colleague of the comedian Debo Adedayo, best known as Mr Macaroni, first raised the alarm that Abiola went missing after reporting to his office in Navy Town, Lagos.
Later, reports surfaced that the content creator was detained for 18 days for social media misbehaviour and indiscipline.
