‘The People Reading Your Story Cannot Make You Happy’ – Alibaba Writes On Celebrity Marriages

Alibaba, one of the most sought after Nigerian stand-up comedian and the father of Stand-up comedy in Nigeria has advised couples to stop bringing their relationship issues to social media.

He took to Instagram to inform them that the people reading their story will not make them happy after reading it and most people just want to throw a pity party. However, he advised people who have suffered domestic violence or rape to speak up in other to advise others.

Read below:

The person who is reading your story now will not make you happy after the person reads the story. The people who run your story are trying to drive traffic with your story. Your story is just a tool to drag visitors to their site. What happens after the story has become a trending topic? ON TO THE NEXT STORY. Go check the lives of those who have thought by going public with a story calculated to wreck an ex, because of a love gone sour… most of them, if not all, hug fame and disappear below the radar of attention. Some settle down but many just can not get up to something that can top that story that trended.

Don’t get me wrong, rape and domestic violence is not what I am talking about. If he or she raised a hand to hit you, break that hand or at least, you must warn others. That’s all. Same goes for rape. But when they are personal issues usually associated with relationship differences… just can it. I am not a saint. Just as many people that I know. If you hear stories you go weak. I know of couples that have overcome issues WORSE THAN WHAT MANY go public about. While you are thinking you have issues, there are some who would give an arm, I mean, a complete arm, to enjoy what you call pain. I get several direct messages that rip my heart apart. The couples affected went their different ways and found love.

Do you know that when you go off on an ex, there are some watching in the wings and trust me, they are not throwing a pity party for you, they are actually saying good for you. Were you blind? Did they put a gun to your head? Why are you telling us now? I am the first to admit that we all have different tolerance level.

So what I can take another can’t. I know a lady, who was just 2 months in a marriage, who left her matrimonial home in Ikeja, at 10pm, and went to her parents house in Gbagada. What happened? “Nosa refused to eat and when I asked him why, he shouted at me!’ What did he say, “Don’t disturb me!!” And she went to her father’s house. The Mum said go back, he is not hungry yet. Some other ladies will go and sleep. No need to stress themselves. As they say, one man’s meat is another man’s poison.”

The veteran comedian took to Instagram to share a photo with his dog and captioned it:
“Got this dog the same day of the USA inauguration that brought into office the first black man into the white house… so it was no coincidence that I named him Obama. Because it was black and white.

But today is a wonderful day to come home and celebrate what you mean to daddy. This is very important for me as i watched you come out of an operation alive only a few weeks ago. Besides buying you gifts or throwing a big birthday party for you, this is also a day of Thanksgiving. This a day to remind you how much you are loved by daddy.
Just before you came into this world 9 years ago, i remember how broke i was as a proposed father who could not even take care of himself, not to talk of your mum who followed me into the journey with hopes and aspirations for a better tomorrow. Today, you have brought us goodluck. you have been a well behaved and God fearing child. there is absolutely nothing in comparison to your brilliance. At your age you have resolved issues between daddy and mummy, you have also captured the culture of caring and giving to others who dont have. you make me walk with my shoulders high everytime i see your results or attend any of your school functions. You have proven to me that a local Warri boy can also be the father of an ‘Ajebutter’. Michelle Folashade Adeola Makun, You have brightened my world, you are like the sunlight that reflects on the raindrops of me and your mum’s lives to make beautiful rainbows. you have been a blessing to us. Happy Birthday to the sweetest daughter
 ever!’
