This is sort of strange. Information just reaching me indicates that popular comic actor, Baba Suwe (real name Babatunde Omidina), is yet to arrive home days after he was ordered to be released from the custody of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) by a Lagos High Court Judge, Justice Yetunde Idowu.
When asked of the whereabouts of Baba Suwe, leader of the Association of Nigerian Theatre Arts Practitioners, ANTP, Prince Jide Kosoko, said: “I don’t know where...
he is at the moment. But I know that he definitely needs to rest after being held for such a long time. I cannot say for sure where he is. And you know a lot of people will want to see him at the same time, so it is possible he’s in town but choose not to see anyone.”
Conflicting information: One family source at his residence in Ikorodu said he is recuperating at an undisclosed location in lagos. Another source said he is resting somewhere around Kano. So far, we don't know who to believe as far as the man's location is concern.
It is natural for him to catch some rest and possibly recover from the 'gruesome' experience he had during his 24-day detention on the suspicion that he ingested substances believed to be Cocaine. What is however strange is the manner in which his whereabouts is becoming a subject of 'mini' controversy. I hear some ANTP members are even planning a "visit" to his family, since no one has been able to tell them exactly where the actor has gone to "rest".
Baba Suwe’s younger brother’s wife, Mrs. Bukola Omidina, said he has been calling home on phone from the location he was driven to from the court since he was freed last week. Although she refused to comment on when Baba Suwe would rejoin his family... I just hope this issue will not later become a Baba Suwe saga part 2.
