Furthermore, the comedian will be responsible for monitoring those “clearing gutters” in the navy barracks for one month, according to him.
“Yes, he’s been released,” he said. However, as a form of punishment, he has been assigned ‘extra duty.’ That means he’d be in charge of coordinating the barracks’ hygiene for a month.
The Nigerian Navy announced in November that it had arrested Cute Abiola for allegedly violating the armed forces’ social media policy.
The announcement comes after Mr. Macaroni raised concern about his colleague’s sudden disappearance from the eyes of the public.
The statement by the Nigerian Navy read, “The attention of the navy has been drawn to an online news story claiming naval personnel OSCOMP Abdulgafar AA; who incidentally is a popular comedian known as Cute Abiola, has gone missing.
“The Nigerian Navy wishes to categorically debunk this false news report currently trending online.
“OSCOMP Abdulgafar is currently under custody in his unit for breaching the armed forces social media policy and refusal to obey particular orders.
