“I just read on Twitter that the bedridden Nollywood actor has passed away.
“Free from the anguish and the pain that he went through. I believe he is in a better place.
“Where there is no pain or anguish, a place where he would not need to go through the pain that he did because he wanted to live.
“He fought for his life, but as a warrior who knew when to call it a quit, he gave up this evening.
“Dear Amaechi Mounagor, thank you for the memories and for being part of my childhood. It is sad that his generation of Nollywood stars is leaving, and we don’t have their replacement yet.
“Nobody has been able to fill the huge void left behind by my favourite actor, Sam Loco. Go well, sir.”
