Actor and filmmaker, Saheed Bayonle, who identifies as Baba Suwe’s foster son also noted that contrary to insinuations in certain quarters, Omidina got all the support he needed from colleagues, fans and family members. He told, “Baba Suwe’s illness started long before it became known to everyone. I guess it was worsened by old age. There was no problem with money because it was readily available. He got the support he needed from everyone, including his colleagues.
“The NDLEA issue was obviously a contributing factor to his illness. He was subjected to physical, mental and psychological torture. I understand that most people expected him not to be broken over the case because he was a man but there is a limit to what men can endure. Baba Suwe’s confidence in the country could have been boosted if he was given the compensation awarded to him by the court because he never peddled cocaine, contrary to what some people believed.
Recall that the anti-drug agency had detained the actor for several days and he was made to excrete multiple times but no illicit substance was found on him. Fabiyi told Saturday Beats, “The immortalisation of Baba Suwe should begin with the NDLEA offering a posthumous apology for the dehumanising treatment meted out to him. Baba Suwe died a very fulfilled man but he was hurt and unhappy. He loved due process and hated crime and taking shortcuts. He placed a high value on intelligence and hard work. He also loved his children very much. Insinuations about his relatives not being on good terms should be disregarded.
