Tu Face, Ali Baba lend helping hands to visually impaired clan

2FACE Idibia and ace comedian Ali Baba have joined forces with comedy merchant Opa Williams in bringing succour to the visually impaired clan as arrangements have reached top gear for this year’s Williams’ charity ball tagged ‘The Evening’.

Scheduled to hold on November 25 at the Muson Centre, Lagos, Williams disclosed that this year’s ‘The Evening’ which is being done in association with the Nigerian Society for the Blind, is the “perfect Xmas gift” anyone can give to love ones. The comedy merchant and film producer said the event will turn out to be the “biggest and most unique ‘charity’ ball in 2012” as three tables in the high profile ball have been reserved for members of Nigerian Society for the Blind with over 30 per cent of proceeds being set aside for the procurement of Brail machines as well as other visual support materials for the visually impaired. “We wish we can get guard dogs too but in this part of world, trained dogs that act as guards for visually impaired people are not popular,” Williams said.

Ace comedian Ali Baba will also show why he is often referred to as the ‘King of Comedy’ while blind multi-talented singer and producer, Cobhams Asuquo will be on ground to prove that being visually impaired is no impediment to making a success of any career. And to wrap up performances for the evening is gospel artiste, Buchi, who has a unique reggae feel to his music. “All these will be watched while guests are being treated to a three-course meal and exotic wines on the card,” Opa Williams said.
