Ace Actor and comedian, Omidina Babatunde a.k.a Baba Suwe now in the
custody of the National Drug Law and Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, over
alleged possession of cocaine was said to have made his first self
excretion but no drug was found in it.
Disclosing this development to Saturday Vanguard, the Head of Public
Affairs, NDLEA, Mr. Mitchell Ofoyeju however said Suwe was still under
close observation by the agency to know what actually went wrong.
Baba Suwe was nabbed aboard an Air France aircraft to Paris at the
Murtala Muhammed International Airport, MMIA, Ikeja Lagos at about 10pm
on Wednesday when he allegedly tested positive to drug ingestion and had
been placed under observation since then.
Earlier yesterday, the NDLEA had expressed concern that Suwe who was
on his way to attend the naming ceremony of his close friend in Paris
had not been able to excrete despite the fact that he was ‘’eating very
well and co-operating with narcotic investigators.’’ ‘
’There is reasonable ground for suspicion and the actor is currently
under observation. He is fine and had been eating but has not excreted.
‘’We have invited our doctor to examine him. This is crucial to ascertain the true position.
Further up-date on the matter shall be made known to the general
public. “.the Agency told Saturday Vanguard, shortly before he ecreted.
NDLEA’s Airport Commander, Alhaji Hamza Umar also confirmed that Suwe
was in safe custody even as it was learnt that he was to the act as a
compere during the naming ceremony which he missed as a result of his
arrest.Source
