The once upon a time a very popular actor was the subject of a recent public funding to secure health care abroad.

Insiders disclosed that while he was the rave, Babasuwe made a major investment in the acquisition production and post production equipment for hire but he didn’t update to current standards.

” The studio and cameras equipment no longer brought in cash and it was abandoned for newer and state of the art equipment owned by others” societynow.ng learned.

Added revelation has it that he was knocked off the perch of the most in-demand comic actor because he failed to reinvent himself.

All these are the bane of his current -poor financial state societynow.ng sources insist.
