Great move from Africamagic. He was a Great son of Africa and the fun and joy he brought to us on the screen would be greatly missed.

Well done African Magic, He is an icon

Are they going to be paying sam loco's estate or family any money, since this will attract more subscriptions?, How much?, 1M, 10M, 100M?, or they just want sam loco's family to stay hungry,

Thats a very great way for africa magic to remember sam loco efe
