Famous comedian, Abdulgafar Ahmed Abiola, well known as Cute Abiola, has travelled out of Nigeria for the first time.

Cute Abiola, who left Nigeria for Saudi Arabia, said it was his lifelong ambition to first visit Mecca after he has been discharged by the Nigerian Navy.

The popular skit maker, who was appointed as the Special Assistant on Creative Industries to Kwara State Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq, in November, made this known via a post on his Instagram page on Friday.

He, however, expressed his appreciation to Governor AbdulRazaq, and the Chief of Naval Staff, Vice Admiral Awwal Zubair Gambo, for making his journey out of Nigeria possible.

Cute Abiola stated: “Hmmmm! This is my first time out of Nigeria!

“It has been my lifelong ambition that anytime the Nigerian Navy discharges me and when I decide to start traveling out of Nigeria, the first place I so wish to visit is Mecca and Medina to give thanks to God Almighty for the journey so far, before visiting the rest of the world. Once again!

“I appreciate God for making this possible for me. This is Saudi Arabia (Medina) my first voyage out of Nigeria.

“My fans have been my greatest strength and I pray that may you all experience a prosperous new year by the grace of God.

“Season greetings from Alhaji, honourable Ambassador Abdulgafar Ahmed Abiola
