Ali Baba builds own mansion

By NKARENYI UKONU

He is not called the King of comedy for nothing. Having conquered the comedy scene and nurtured to fruition, able lieutenants, Halleluyah Akpoborome Atuyota otherwise known as Alli Baba who has proved on most fronts that he is indeed king, has again set a standard that his lieutenants will no doubt want to ape.

The Delta State born comic act recently unveiled his palatial mansion which has been aptly dubbed heaven on earth to a select few. Built from scratch, the haven is a duplex of three sitting rooms, seven bedrooms with a swimming pool sized Jacuzzi in the master bedroom and a floor to ceiling sized cinema for the viewing pleasure of the family and friends of the lover of high end breed of dogs. Situated in a nicely tucked in estate in the Lekki axis of Lagos called Nicon town, the house which comes with an electrically controlled garage is without the traditional fence that shields most homes in Nigeria. Even though it costs the comedian a fortune to erect, it is without a doubt a huge relief for him, what with the astronomical rent he parted with annually at his Ikoyi pad.
