“How legendary Sam Loco influenced my career” – Nollywood veteran Francis Odega

Nollywood veteran Francis Odega has revealed his experience with the Nigerian iconic comic actor, late Sam Loco.

While narrating his experience with the late legendary actor, Francis revealed that Sam Loco never followed the casting script but rather followed the stance of his talent. He disclosed that he amended it instead.

Admitting to have learned a lot from him, he claimed that he treated him and his wife as his children, thereby making work with him compatible and easy.

Serving as his PA, Francis revealed that he portrayed such to learn, and even at that senerio, Sam Loco funded him most times. He would offer him cash like 50k to give to his wife. Perhaps Francis would give his wife 10k instead via his interest.

Finalising his utterances, he addressed that he has confessed and apologized to his wife anyway.

“Sam Loco taught me a whole lot. Sam Loco no dey read script. Him go look wetin them write come rephrase am. He was the one who trained me. I been dey carry Sam Loco bag. I was like a PA to him just to learn, and I think I learnt well. That time he treated me like a son and would often call my wife his daughter. Sometimes he would give me money, like 50K to give my wife. I no go lie you, as I reach house na 10K I go come give my wife. She’ll now say, can I call him and thank him, I go come tell her say, no worry I don thank am already. But I don already confess am give my wife…” he said. 

Nigerians couldn’t hold their nerves and reacted massively according to their views.
