Atunyota Alleluya Akpobome, also known as Ali Baba, an accomplished comedian, has explained why he and veteran comedic actor Osita Iheme, alias Pawpaw, were refused entry into Canada.
The movie actors Aki and Yomi Fabiyi, as well as Ali Baba and Pawpaw, were all scheduled to perform at the event sponsored by show organizer MC Morris, but Ali Baba and Pawpaw were denied entry.
Alibaba claimed to have encountered immigration problems along with Pawpaw in a recent video that was shown on MC Morris' page. Aki and Yomi were allowed to stay and perform at the performance, he said.
He did, however, pledge to video call his followers while the event was going on.
Al-Badr said:
"We have been refused voluntary entry. We were instructed to prepare our visa.
We intended to visit and amuse you. Akin and Yomi Fabiyi would stay, while Pawpaw and I would return.
