'NDLEA drug accusation messed up my acting career' - Baba Suwe

In a recent interview with Encomium mag,
popular Yoruba comic actor Baba Suwe said that
he has not received any money from NDLEA as
damages and that the 'false accusation' has
damaged his acting career and most of his
friends don't want to associate with him
anymore...
"I have not collected any money. The most
painful thing is that I was wrongfully
accused. Had it been I actually committed
the crime, I wouldn't mind but they
punished me for nothing. I was in NDLEA
for almost three weeks and nothing was
found on me. No matter the kind of juju one
may have used, I don't think there is
anybody that can even conceal cocaine for
even two days. It would burst inside the
person's stomach which may lead to death.
And I believe after all their investigations,
they should have released me so that I can
continue with my career. But the whole
situation, the way I was treated actually
rubbished my image. My career has been
dwindling. A lot of people who are supposed
to be inviting me to take part in their
movies abandoned me because of that
incident. A lot of people that could have
assisted me financially dont want to
associate with me again. For instance I was
close to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu before
and he was very nice to me. He had done a
lot for me but now its very difficult for me to
be close to him again. He is also even not
comfortable with me around him again
because of the allegation" Baba Suwe said
