The grilling of ace comedian, Babatunde Omidina, popularly known as Baba Suwe, over suspicion that he ingested wraps of cocaine for trafficking, took another dramatic turn yesterday.
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) said that the comedian would have to excrete up to five or six times for it to be fully convinced that he is innocent. Baba Suwe was about catching a flight to Paris, France to attend a naming ceremony where he was to be a compere. He was suspected to have ingested some unidentified quantity of the hard drug after having been subjected to scanning.
On Friday, the anti-drug agency disclosed that he had passed his first excretion since incarceration but that it did not contain any drug. Also yesterday evening, the agency announced that he excreted for the second time but that the second excretion also did not come with any drug. However, NDLEA’s Head of Public Affairs, Mr. Ofoyeju Mitchell, in a chat with Sunday Mirror yesterday, disclosed that the movie act was still being expected to pass more faeces, from which the narcotic detectives intends to find the alleged wraps of cocaine.www.mannastores.com
“He has only excreted twice since we arrested him on Wednesday. We expect him to do up to five or six excretions to be sure that he did not ingest the drugs. “You should realise that for scan to have detected the drug in his bowel, means that we have to be painstaking, to be sure that justice is done.” Mitchell stressed that “these are routine investigations,” adding, “Baba Suwe, though a star, is like any member of the public and that is what we want to make clear to all.”
