December 17, (THEWILL) – Atunyota Akpobome, also known as, Ali Baba, has revealed that his wife thought he was into fraud when he made N1.6 million from an event in 1996.
The comedian made this known during an Instagram live session with Morayo Afolabi-Brown.
According to the comedian, the growth of Lagos would impact the earning power of residents of the state. “If Lagos continues to grow, our earning power will also grow. I remember coming to Lagos and earning between N500 and N1000. But, the value that was placed on the service I offered increased.
“In 1996, I was paid N1.6m by Guinness to promote one of their brands, Satzenbrau. We practically toured everywhere in the country. When the money came (into my account), my wife thought I had got involved in advance free fraud,” he stated.
