An Ikeja High Court has ordered National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, to produce embattled comedian Mr. Babatunde Omidina, commonly called Baba Suwe in court by the next adjourned date, Monday.

Trial judge, Justice Yetunde Idowu, in her ruling on an application by Omidina, made the order. Counsel to Suwe, Bamidele Aturu, urged the court to direct the anti-drug agency to release Suwe from their custody, or alternatively, produce him in court at the next adjourned date.

NDLEA did not object to the application, which was granted by the court. It will be recalled that a Federal High Court sitting in Lagos, had granted NDLEA, 15 more days to keep Suwe base on a new discovery, it claimed it made, as there was more drug in Suwe’s body.

NDLEA arrested Suwe while he was about boarding a plane to Paris at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, when a scanning device indicated that he had ingested substances suspected to be hard drugs and had since then been in custody.
