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.
