Comedian, Alibaba reveals he was once a cab driver

By Patricia Uyeh,

Nigerian comedian, Atunyota Akpobome a.k.a Ali Baba took us down memory lane as he shared his grass to grace story.

According to him, he was once a bus conductor and taxi driver when he was still a struggling entertainer. Then, he used his father’s car to convey people to their respective destinations as a taxi-driver.

He revealed this during a recent interview with Channels TV’s Sunrise adding that he became a comedian by accident.

Alibaba said:

 ”I had my dad’s Toyota Crown. I will take the car for washing and I would do kabu-kabu (taxi), bribe him by coming with all the newspapers and put on the table”
