It wasn't up to three months when the who-is-who in Nollywood honoured actor Ashley Nwosu, who died. Just last month, actress Christy Essien-Igbokwe died. Now, another actor has gone.
Sam Loco Efe was not just an ordinary actor. He was brilliant, he was professional, he was funny, he was candid. He was everything, even if he never left the green bottles.
It is hard to accept he was never Igbo. As one who grew up in Abakaliki, he spoke the language fluently. He was always smiling. Nollywood would surely miss him. That is sure.
