Samson Folarin ‘Baba Kukute, a veteran Yoruba actor, has shared a memorable and embarrassing moment from his childhood, revealing how the discipline he received that day shaped his life.
In an interview posted on the official YouTube channel of Nigbati TV, he recounted how he was severely punished and tied up after being caught stealing meat from his mother’s pot.
In his statement, he said, “My mother cooked some meats, and she kept it inside the room when she was going out. After she went out, I went to carry the pot, but unfortunately it fell on my face, and all the meats in the pot, including the soup, fell on my face. I couldn’t see anything until my mother came back, and she pretended as if nothing happened, and she allowed me to sleep.
She woke me up in the middle of the night and reported me to my brothers. I was beaten mercilessly and tied up in the night when I stole meats from the pot. Since that time, I have never tried to steal anything from anybody, and this should be a lesson to others who steal from people.”
In other news Renowned Fuji artist King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate, has found himself at the center of controversy following a comment he made during his late mother’s Fidau prayer.
Many have deemed his remarks about Islamic clerics (Alfas) disrespectful, particularly as they came shortly after the passing of his mother, Alhaja Halimah Anifowoshe, who died at the age of 105.
In a video clip circulating online, K1 De Ultimate is seen conversing with a man while preparing for his late mother’s 8-day Fidau prayer. During the discussion, the artist used the term “Ganusi” in reference to some Alfas, sparking mixed reactions.
This phrase immediately sparked debates online, as many interpreted it to mean that K1 was implying that some Alfas attend such events primarily for the food served, labeling them as food mongers.
