Atunyota Alleluya Akporobomerere, yes, that is the full name of Nigeria's number one comedian, Ali Baba. He is so many things rolled into one: philanthropist, motivational speaker and mentor. The ace humour maker recently encountered a young groundnut hawker who begged him to make her as popular as he is and he did not hesitate to take a photograph with her and posted on his Instagram page, about his encounter with her. This is what he wrote: "That's the babe that sells me 'granorth'. Very witty too. She said, 'OGA Ali, make me sef popular naaaa!' I hope this does it for her. A handsome former governor in the south south, who also goes through my Instagram, with a very filthy mind, just asked me if the '2 nuts she is holding are mine.' I said yes before I realized what he meant. Never mind. Please if you ever drive pass the front of Cool Fm, ask after her... For your own 'granorth'."

Alibaba took to Twitter to denounce the use of his brand to campaign for Goodluck Jonathan. He complained about the fact that he wasn't contacted or contracted for using his image to campaign for Goodluck Jonathan. He also urged people to go out to vote. Voting in the Presidential election was extended till Sunday due security and technical challenges.
