Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Adesola Omidina, a son of the late veteran Nigerian comic actor, Baba Suwe, has apologised to members of Theatre Arts And Motion Pictures Practitioners Association Of Nigeria (TAMPAN), actors, and Nigerians over his comments after his father died yesterday.<\/p>\n

Shortly after his father\u2019s death, Adesola shared a video showing the corpse of his father and accused TAMPAN and colleagues of abandoning him while he was sick.<\/p>\n

Baba Suwe died on Monday after a long battle with an illness.<\/p>\n

He, however, has retracted his comment as he apologised to TAMPAN in a post on his Instagram page.<\/p>\n

He wrote, \u201cAs the son of the veteran actor late Babatunde Omidina \u2018Baba Suwe\u2019 I am genuinely issuing this statement to denounce and condemn the videos made about Baba Suwe\u2019s death that has been wrongly posted.\u201d<\/p>\n

He stated that Nollywood, the government, and TAMPAN have been supportive in many ways.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Nollywood, TAMPAN, the government, Prophets, family and fans have been supportive in their own ways. I tender an apology to all the groups, people and families affected! Again, please disregard any inappropriate \u2018video\u2019 circulating social media,\u201d the statement read.<\/p>\n

Atiku, Nigerians mourn death of comic legend, Baba Suwe<\/p>\n
