Biography
He is a Llongo by birth. He went into the army as a boy because he like fighting. When the Indepandece war came and it became clear that those fighting for freedom would win, general Bababu joined the liberation movement. Afterwards, he candidated for the post as president of Bengali (as it was still called then), but lost it to dr. Lamanda Luaga. In an act of unability to accept a defeat, general Bababu started a civil war in a hunt for Luaga. Luaga was brought to the safety in the Skull Cave by the Phantom, who then also kidnapped Bababu to the place and summoned all the chieftains of the Jungle to sentence him. The ruling became that Luaga and Bababu had to fight for their cause in a duel without any weapon. Luaga won the duel, due to boxing skills as he had been boxing during his studies in Oxford.
After that defeat, he has repeatedly come back over and over again and tried to take control over Bangalla. Usually by attempting to murder Luaga.
Bababu also has a daughter named Lila, who married Lon Luaga, the son of his archenemy.
