Sabinus' lookalike trends on social media

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a viral video showed when comedian Sabinus spoke to his lookalike at an event. Sabinus and his lookalike, Mr Cultivator, made headlines hours ago after meeting at an event.

However, some netizens claimed that Sabinus ignored the young man, and they dragged him for not recognising his efforts. A recent video Sabinus shared on Instagram debunked such speculations, as the duo smiled with each other and even took photos.

Mr Cultivator, while standing with Sabinus, was facing another direction when Sabinus beckoned on him to face the camera. Sharing the video via Instagram, Sabinus hinted to fans in his caption that they met at Owerri and that he genuinely had an exciting time.
