Nigerian comedienne Ms. Helen Paul while appearing on AY Live last week made comments about fellow comedian Ali Baba that many fans thought was disrespectful. Following the show, Ali Baba went on to write on his instagram page referring to a female colleague who tried to back-stab him. His fans believed he was talking about Helen. To clear the air, Helen answered back on her instagram page. Full post after cut..........
Helen went on her instagram page in regards to what happened in the show and wrote:
"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.
