The alleged drug trafficking scandal, involving Baba Suwe, now resembles the longest tennis cracker played at the Wimbledon 2010 between Nicolas Mahut and John Isner .
The encounter lasted three days. Tennis fans around the globe held their breath on 22, 23, and 24 June 2010 until Isner defeated Mahut after 11 hours five minutes and 183 games.
For over three days now, since the popular comedian was arrested by operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, at about 10 pm on Wednesday,12 October, on suspicions that he had concealed hard drugs in his stomach detected by the NDLEA scanner, Nigerians have been waiting to know the outcome of the drug saga.
It was only after 48 hours yesterday that the ace actor made the first excretion without drugs in it, according to a statement by NDLEA last night.
According to Hamza Umar, the NDLEA commander at the Lagos airport, there have been cases where suspects excreted the hard drug only at the fourth excretion, and as such, the comedian is still under observation.
As at 6 pm today, Baba Suwe NDLEA sources said that Baba Suwe has gone for another excretion and no drugs was found in it.
For now, Nigerians will still have to hold their breath as millions wonder who between NDLEA and Baba Suwe will be vindicated.
The comedian has denied ever swallowing the drug and his teeming fans are saying that his travails look like a comedy of gargantuan errors.
