May his soul rest in peace.

Wow! So this man was from Cross River?
I thought he was Yoruba.
He and his peers in theater and entertainment as a whole represent better times growing up in this country for me.
Much more saner, tranquil, prosperous times for this nation.

Today it's a rotten atmosphere everywhere.

May he RIP.

I remember him from a TV story every Tuesday or so and one the actors was called Okonta.

Olson thought he was edo or yoruba

Rip papa

grin grin grin I never got to watch that film but my elder brother used to narrate it for me amidst rolling in a fit of laughter.
Two parts that he often mentioned was - 1) When Larry killed a goat with a bow and arrow
2) A fight scene where Larry displayed some kung fu moves grin

What type of statement is this? You think there are no younger people in Naija today than (people in their forties like you and me?)
Or you feel that somehow Nigerians stopped procreating after the early eighties? Smh

There was also The Reign of Abiku (c1985).
True. I always believe The Reign of Abiku is more of thriller than horror.

Back then I always classify movies that have zombies in it as horror movies. Didn't even know there are many types of horror movies as there are many types of thriller movies.

But still The Reign of Abiku sacred the hell outta me back then. Can actually remember being scared getting up to pee in the night. Gosh!.

Who? I don't know him and I'm almost fifty. Programs he acted in were almost the same age as I am. This one isn't Indomie generation. He is unknown.

Remember him from way, way back.

Rest in peace great thespian.

I thought he is yoruba. I use to see him in satellite town on my way back from school in the late 90's. RIP papa!
