Social media comedian, Abdulgafar Abiola aka Cute Abiola, has been arrested after his birthday pictures in Navy uniform went viral. As we know, members of the army or navy are not to use their uniforms for anything unofficial; especially no leisure.
Abiola is reportedly in a holding cell at a Naval facility in the Apapa area of Lagos.
Naijaloaded reports that a source familiar with the matter, confirmed the development; that the Nigerian Navy arrested and detained the comedian.
The source, who reportedly spoke on the condition of anonymity; said the comedian’s offense was being in full Navy camouflage in the viral birthday pictures.
They arrested Cute Abiola because his actions were not the code of conduct for a Naval officer; it may be punishable with lengthy detention or dismissal from the Navy service, the source reveals.
This is however not the first time a law enforcement agency will fume over an act like this. Just recently, some female officers of the Nigeria Immigration Service openly received queries for featuring in a Bop Daddy challenge.
Unlike it is in the overseas where enforcement officers take part in funfilled-civil activities; enforcement agents in Nigeria put up a stern intolerant front. What is your take on this as a Nigerian?
