For wearing police uniform in one of his skits and for ridiculing the Nigeria Police Force in the process, the Nigerian Navy has placed one of its personnel, OSCOMP Abdulgafar Ahmad, aka Cute Abiola, on one-month ‘extra duty’.
The popular Instagram comedian was arrested on November 15, 2021, but has been released from detention to serve his ‘light corrective punishment’ in the cantonment.
Ahmad, 25, is expected to end his punishment by December 15, 2021, when he would be allowed to return home to his family.
Naval spokesperson, Commodore Suleman Dahun, confirmed the development.
The naval spokesman said that Ahmad was given a light punishment of a ‘one-month extra duty’ after a military trial.
Dahun said, “Cute Abiola has been placed on one-month extra duty after he was tried. He will be in charge of cleanship; supervising painting, electricians, carpentry, cutting of grasses, and others. He will be supervising civilians.
“He is no longer under detention. He has been released to move around to serve his punishment.
“Because he was detained on November 15, that one month will start counting from then, which means he is going to be engaged till December 15. By then, he will be off the extra duty.”
