“I Felt Indifferent” – Ali Baba Opens Up About Welcoming Triplets with His Wife, Mary
In a Punch interview, the comedian revealed that he experienced a range of emotions upon learning about his wife’s pregnancy with triplets. He said, “I felt indifferent, but I was also happy.”
Addressing matters within the entertainment industry, Ali Baba said there was a much more severe issue in Nigeria than the moral controversies raised by skit makers and content creators.
He said, “The thing is that your moral yardstick is not gauged by skit makers or content creators. It is based on parental control, government policies, and the educational systems. It is what the society does that is mirrored. For instance, the boy who is making skits about prostitution is not the one who caused it. That does not mean they should promote it all the time though. But, when you have people surviving in corruption and nothing is done to them, have any of those things being banned? No! But, morality is now the big issue when corruption is a bigger problem. Is the girl who is dancing naked on social media worse than the man who is stealing N2bn in office?”

The singer recalled how he once stole his neighbour’s son’s bicycle and sold it to raise money for a studio session.
He said “If my mom hears this, she’ll be angry. When we lived in Okoko, I once stole my neighbor’s son’s bicycle and hid it at night. I sold it in Alaba for ₦7,000 to pay for studio sessions. I’ve seen him since and bought him a new bicycle.”

Kuti has previously spoken publicly about his relationships and his decision not to remain faithful to one woman.
Nigerian actress Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde has revealed that she once had the chance to become a billionaire through the political field but turned it down.

“I tell people that if I wanted to be a billionaire, I could have been one easily. I’ve been offered that opportunity through politics, but I chose not to take it because it would compromise my principles.”
