TAMPAN denies abandoning ailing Baba Suwe

The Theatre  Arts and Motions Pictures Producers Association of Nigeria on Monday  denied   abandoning  one of its  members,  Babatunde Omidina, in the hospital.

Omidina, popularly known as Baba Suwe,  is currently battling with an undisclosed illness.

Speaking with  reporters  in Abeokuta  on Monday, the  National President of the association,  Bolaji Amusan, said the report was sponsored by mischief-makers to discredit TAMPAN.

Amusan, popularly known as Mr Latin,  said the association  had been taking care of the veteran actor’s medical bills since 2017,  under the administration of immediate-past President, Dele Odule.

He  said,”I  have  just instructed the Lagos State executive of the association to check on him (Baba Suwe) to ascertain  his health progress.

“I  can tell you that we have not abandoned Baba Suwe, as well as any of our members, as being speculated in some quarters by mischief-makers.”

However, Amusan  said  they  had  designed a new policy to  help members of the  association.
