Cute Abiola: Arrest, detention propelled me towards actualizing my dreams 


Popular Skit maker, Abdulgafar Ahmed Abiola, aka Cute Abiola, has marked the first anniversary of his arrest and subsequent detention by the Nigerian Navy for flouting the social media rules of the Force.

The SSA To kwara state governor on creative industries, on his verified Facebook page, said the torments of those times were efforts by the Navy to prepare him for the numerous tasks ahead. 

NRTC had earlier reported that the skit maker was detained on 16th November last year without the knowledge of his family.

“I recalled this voyage with longing memories and I agreed that the torments of those times were efforts by the Navy to prepare me for the numerous tasks ahead.
