Baba Suwe is very ill — Actor, Yomi Fabiyi raises alarm over Yoruba actor’s health

Actor, Yomi Fabiyi has once again said that Veteran Actor, Baba Suwe is going through a deteriorating health following the torture he suffered in the hands of the National Drug Law and Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in 2011.
Fabiyi has called on Nigerians, to lend a helping to the Actor who he says is traumatized after losing an appeal to receive a compensation fee of N25 million initially granted to him by the Lagos State High Court.
Recall, High Justice Yetunde Idowu ordered the Drug Law Enforcement Agency to pay the actor N25m for detaining him after he was found innocent of the allegations of drug trafficking.
Omidina, who is a widower has been left to suffer undue trauma as a result of the humiliating experiences he went through during the incident.
“​I am calling on all ​senior colleagues in the entertainment world especially those close to Baba Suwe because I don’t have everyone’s contact to please reach out to him as soon as possible,” Fabiyi said in a statement according to the Daily Post News.
”T​he torture done on him by NDLEA is vastly damaging his health at an alarming rate.​ ​​
“He told me he no longer feel comfortable since that episode. Baba Suwe is a widower, he can hardly walk properly as I speak, let alone go to film.
​”​How will he feed and take care of the children aunty Moladun left behind?​ ​​
“This is an A-List Entertainer and this conspiracy of silence gives me ​mental agony on my part, I don’t want to speak when it may be too late, I won’t forgive myself.
​”​He told me when I visited him that he is innocent of the accusations and yet a ​long pipe was inserted through his anus; he was detained for too long amongst other things just because he was randomly suspected like every normal person.
”​In my opinion, only lazy, ill-trained, unfit and uncivilized officers torture in the name of investigation.
“Torture is criminal and sinful. If this accusation is found to be true by independent investigators, it shouldn’t go unpunished.
​”​The court asked NDLEA to pay him 25 million for damages which is yet to be obeyed but to me an ​open apology will placate him and illustrate some dignified and civil approach from a government agency that made him go through all that without coming up with a single proof after that prolonged detention and drama.
”He who assert ​must prove! NDLEA needs to restore public confidence by doing the needful on this matter. And until individuals and government agency begin to respect fundamental ​human right and enhance duty of care, the essence of Nigeria’s ​freedom is far from been realistic.
​”​No malice is intended against NDLEA with this outcry, I just hope the leadership see this as a clarion call for getting it right and save the agency from sending an innocent person to an early grave whereby leaving his children to suffer unjustly. My humble take. Thank you. Yomi Fabiyi​”, the actor concluded.
