Ali Baba to Buhari: We Don’t Need Your Money

Comedian, Ali Baba has made known what he expect from President Muhammadu Buhari ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The veteran comedian took to his Instagram handle to state that “we don’t need you to give us money. Just provide the enabling environment”.

He wrote: Like we told those before you, Mr President, we don’t need you to give us money. Just provide the enabling environment, AND, WE, WILL BE THE ONES TO GIVE YOU MONEY. Let the government make a deliberate attempt to promote the arts. Piracy laws. Structure for enforcement of those laws. Film villages. Museums. Creative fora. Cinemas. Promotion of culture and tourism just like you promote crude oil…. then we will show you the money. Sir, you see all these meetings you are having, we have held them before… plus several breakout sessions. Only to be forgotten. And remembered just at the dawn of another election.
