The young man noted that the actor had already been placed on his first drip when he got home and the medical personnel present gave him the second one before he stepped out to wash his kits.
Adebowale then added that while he was washing his kits, his mother took him aside to inform him of his father’s death.
The young man said he was filled with shock at the news and which was why he made a video of his late father’s corpse and posted it on his WhatsApp status. However, the video went viral just within minutes of him posting it.
Baba Suwe never recovered from his NDLEA troubles
Also during the interview, Adebowale noted that Baba Suwe never recovered from the effects of the trauma he faced during his troubles with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
Baba Suwe was arrested in 2011 at the Lagos airport over claims that he was carrying cocaine.
The comic actor was jailed by the NDLEA for several weeks in hopes that he would excrete the hard drugs. However, that never happened and the court ordered the NDLEA to pay the actor the sum of N25 million in damages. An amount they reportedly never paid.
