Baba Suwe Goes To Supreme Court To Claim N25m

Popular Yoruba comic actor, Babatunde Omidina otherwise known as Baba Suwe, has headed to the Supreme Court to claim N25million as compensation from the National Drugs Law and Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).

An Appeal Court in Lagos had quashed an earlier judgement by a High Court which awarded the said sum to Baba Suwe over the violation of the actor's fundamental human rights, after the anti-drugs agency held him for about three weeks in their custody on the suspicion of ingesting substance believed to be narcotic.

Baba Suwe's counsel, Bamidele Aturu filed a notice of appeal at the Supreme Court on Friday challenging the decision of the Appeal Court to quash the judgment of the High Court in Lagos.
