Few years after the demise of veteran actor, Sam Loco, his son who relived some fond memories he had of his father, stated that no one dared his father to stop smoking.

Omoruyi who said his father, Sam Loco was planning his retirement by building a farm in Abakaliki before death took him away, told Saturday Beats;

“Nobody could tell him to stop smoking because he was a very strict person. You couldn’t tell him something like that, so we didn’t see it as our business. However, we really miss him in the house because he had a very good sense of humour but he was a very busy person.

“We all expected him to retire so that we would have enough time to spend with him. He was also planning towards his retirement by building a farm in Abakaliki but death took him away suddenly,” he said.

The late actor's son further disclosed that he admired his father especially as an actor, and Sam Loco hoped he would follow in his footsteps.

“I admired my daddy as an actor. All through my primary school days, I was into acting. He wanted me to go into acting after my WAEC before I got admission into the university and I was enrolled into the acting academy for a while before I gained admission into the university. I am very sure if I go into acting full time now, my dad would be very proud of me but I don’t think I would go back to acting anytime soon,” the late veteran’s son said.

In 2011, the Nigerian entertainment was thrown into mourning after the death of popular comic actor, Sam Loco Efe was announced. The veteran actor died of cardiac arrest. Aside from being one of the funniest actors of his generation, Sam Loco was known to be a heavy smoker.

It reminds me of the lady in oau that was stoned by her roommate.
Some people's advice can be taken as an insult and could be seen as mocking.
To advice addicts attitude matters otherwise the smoker could be frightened by the manner the advise was given
