Alleged Rift: Helen Paul Says Ali Baba Is Like a Father to Her

2 Min Read

After several news mediums commented that all was not well between comedienne Helen Paul and veteran comedian Ali Baba, Helen has come out to debunk all rumours that there was a rift between the two of them.

Helen Paul allegedly made comments about Ali Baba during a recent performance at AY Live Port Harcourt that many felt was disrespectful. Ali Baba then wrote something on his Instagram page yesterday about a female colleague who tried to back-stab him and since then, many people felt he was referring to Helen.

Here’s what Helen wrote via Instagram page:

I have watched with mixed feelings, ranging from bewilderment at first, to amazement, and now utter amusement, as some mischief makers have tried to create a non-existent frosty relationship between me and my father and mentor in the industry, Ali Baba. It all started with my jabs at a show – something we all as comedians throw at each other every now and then. All done for laughs – nothing personal.

Ali Baba is someone I respect a lot and it will be foolhardy for anyone to think that I was ‘insulting’ him at that event. I am like a daughter to him and I am sure if he has any issues with me, he would, as an elder and a father, talk to me personally about it. The account and scenario described in his post allegedly referring to me did not even happen to or involve me. It amuses me how people easily read between imaginary lines so that they, like Don King, can promote battles, lol.”
