Baba Suwe |
Babatunde Omidina, known as Baba
Suwe, is a successful comedian better known for his exploits in Yoruba
home videos. He is still arguably the most popular Yoruba comedian of his
time. But Baba Suwe hasn’t been having it easy.
After the much publicised crisis
with National Drug Law Enforcement Agency,NDLEA, he lost his wife, Omoladun,
who was almost always his soul-mate, even in films. Baba Suwe talked with
Potpourri, opening up his heart on his late wife and the prospect of finding
another wife.
Obviously still in grief over the
loss of his wife even as many years have gone by, Adimeru, as he calls himself,
would not let go the memory of his dear Omoladun
“It has not been easy but life must
go on. I believe whatever happens has been pre-ordained. The death of Omoladun
was a great loss I cannot get over in this lifetime. She will remain my best
companion. She understood me than any other person on planet earth. At times
when we quarrelled in the house, she would abuse me on set and that would mark
the end of the issue” he said with a heavy heart.
Though he admitted he would marry
again but said it would never be another actress
“Yes, I am getting married pretty
soon. You can’t know her for now. She is not an actress because I can’t marry
an actress again”
Why? Was there something he
regretted about Omoladun being an actress?
“No, I don’t mean anything of such.
What I mean is that I cannot get someone like Omoladun among the actresses
again. Her good acting skills is one of the reasons I loved her but I have
decided to check elsewhere for love” he explained. Vanguard
