New Twist! Court Of Appeal Rules Against Baba Suwe, Orders NDLEA Not To Pay N25M Compensation

 
He lost…for now.

The ball has swung in favour of the guys from the government after a court of appeal in Lagos ordered the National Drug Law Enforcement Angency not to pay N25m compensation fee to comic Yoruba actor Babatunde Omidina, better known as Baba Suwe
.

The judgement was made May 31, 2013 ruling out an earlier judgement made by the Ikeja High Court after it was established (with the help of his counsel Bamidele Aturu), that the actor was detained more than the required time after the agency accused him of allegedly swallowing ‘large amounts of drugs’ in his body.

Baba Suwe was arrested at the Muritala Mohammed International Airport, on his way to Paris, France to attend a naming ceremony of an Air France staff scheduled for Saturday, October 15, 2011.

Sources say, Aturu will appeal the ruling.
