and revealed that he named them after different world leaders (Both past
& present). Ali Baba claims that former Nigerian President
Obasanjo, was aware and impressed that he had a dog named after him.

"My dogs and I back in the day. Must have had like 12 at a particular
point in time. Interesting time. That time I mean. I had traveled and
returned at night, but was too tired to relate with them. OBJ, the big
Alsatian was the head of the pack. Then Obama was the big black and
white Great Dane, the Alsatian on the bummer was Thatcher. Thatcher must
have given me like 18 puppies. In her good days (X120k per puppy) the
ridge back by Thatcher was called Madiba. It arrived from South Africa
on the birthday of Mandela
The Second Harlequin Great Dane was named after
Queen Amina... But the fiercest of my odds were Chaka, IBB AND Abacha.
They took no prisoners. In fact, if I gave you anything I had used
before, like shoes or clothes,my advice is not to wear them to my home.
Because if Chaka, or Abacha caught a whiff of that item on you... You
will not like yourself. They were my trusted securities and my friend.
One time in LEKKI, 1997 or so, a guy scaled the fence into my compound
in the night. I was woken up to a shouts of "Oga come o!!!!!"
"Oga I am finished!" And Usman my maiguard was having a good laugh. At 2am!
The petty thief was on the roof of my V-Boot. I was more scared for his
life than he was of it. Because then we had Chaka, Ghadaffi and
Clinton. Those who new these dogs will testify to their brutality. Go
ask@basorge_tariah and@officialbunmidavies... But with hind sight now, I
am just thanking God. Yes oooo! O have to thank God ooo. That it was
not now, that I named my dogs after any sitting president and foreign
leaders. In fact, Obasanjo himself was very impressed years later when
his friend that brought me a gift from Baba, told him how a dog called
OBJ in Ali Baba's house nearly killed him. Baba used to warn my wife
then, that if she ever decided to have a dog meal, she should not touch
OBJ... But then again, OBJ had a different kind of personality and a
high sense of humor. Everyone can not be the same. So I understand. An
that is all I have to say."
