Renowned Nigerian comedian and actor Ali Baba shared a harrowing experience with former military leader Gen. Sani Abacha on the Leadership Podcast with Stephen Akintayo. He described the incident as a “near-death experience” during Abacha’s presidency.

At an Abuja event, Ali Baba was tasked with introducing the Akwa Ibom cultural group. Noticing Abacha wearing sunglasses indoors, he boldly requested the president remove them, saying, “Your Excellency, it’s almost 10; don’t you want to see their performance?”

Abacha obliged, but tension escalated as DSS officers approached backstage. Fearing arrest, Ali Baba opted to sit beside Abacha instead of returning backstage.

 

“He made jokes about me, asking why I refused to go backstage. I replied, ‘Don’t worry, sir, they can arrest me here,'” Ali Baba recounted.

“As long as I’m alive, my wife is my wife no matter what she does. If she has an affair, it’s her business” – Peter Obi.

Former Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi has declared  unwavering commitment to wife, Margaret Brownson.

The former Anambra Governor, on the Honest Bunch Podcast, spoke passionately about the depth of their bond, describing it as an unbreakable resolve that goes beyond vows.

Obi emphasised that his love and dedication to Margaret would never falter, regardless of any circumstances.

He calmly stated that nothing, not even infidelity or being shot, could shake his commitment to stand by her side for life.

Obi said: “No matter what my wife does today. I can’t separate from her. I can never. Even if she like let her shoot me, as long as I am alive, she’s my wife

“No matter what she does, I won’t marry [someone else]. She’s my wife. Whatever she likes, let her do because what is she going to do that would offend me? What? Maybe have an extramarital affair? It’s her business. It’s not me. They won’t say two of us have an affair. They would say Peter Obi is a very good man who married a woman who is [promiscuous]. That is it!

“You can’t quantify me with the life of my wife or children. No. We have different lifestyles. Even if I’m traveling with my wife, people have seen it. Sometimes we are in the same plane but in different classes. She is in business class and I’m in economy. Because that suits her and it doesn’t conflict with my interests.”

Peter Obi and Margaret have been married for over 30 years.
