Cute Abiola has opened up about how he was about to balance life as a content creator while he was in the Nigerian Navy.
In a recent interview on HipTV, the comedian said his time in the navy was “the most critical part of my life”.
Abiola said he often worked six days a week but still managed to produce and release content.
The skit maker explained that despite his tight schedule, he remained committed to his goals.
“I’ve done a lot of things that were more tough than my current situation. I used to be in the Nigerian navy,” he said.

“That time was the most critical part of my life, and I was still able to achieve shooting content and being in the navy. That was very, very hard.
“I used to be at work from Mondays to Saturdays most times, and all my contents still used to be out there. In a week, I used to post twice or three times.
“I’m a very dedicated person because I know that I’m supposed to meet a target in my revenue. I have a target for myself, and I used that to motivate myself to make more than I made the previous month.”

Cute Abiola, born Abdulgafar Ahmad, attended the Nigerian Navy Training School. In November 2021, he was detained for flouting regulations on social media use.
He was released and ordered to supervise gutter cleaning in the Navy barracks for one month.
He announced his exit from the Navy in November 2022, citing his desire to fully pursue an entertainment career.
“I was overwhelmed with regard to the approval of my exit from the Navy by the chief of naval staff so as for me to have enough time to passionately pursue my dreams,” he said.
