Sam Loco Efe's death still being investigated

Sam Loco Efe's death still being
investigated
Police would not be sticking to hearsay
that he died after an asthmatic attack
.
The police in Imo State said on Monday they
had yet to unravel the circumstances that
led to the death of popular Nigerian actor,
Sam Loco Efe. It is suspected that he died of
asthma. He was reportedly found dead on
Sunday morning with ventolin inhalers
beside him in the hotel room where he
lodged. The room was forced open after he
failed to come down after retiring the
previous night.
Contrary to reports that he was on location
in Owerri, Imo State, he was actually in
Owerri editing a yet untitled film produced
by Bayelsa State born Favour Ogosi.
The Imo State Police Command Public
Relations Officer, Mr. Linus Nwaiwu is
quoted as saying that investigations had
commenced following insinuations that the
actor might have died in unusual
circumstances as he said: “We have yet to
unravel what killed Sam Loco. We are still
looking at the issues and events that may
have led to his death. As soon as we find a
lead, we will make our findings public.
"... So it is still too early to say what killed
him. We wouldn’t want to work on hearsay;
that is why we are taking our time to
unravel the cause of his death,” he added.
The Edo state governor, Adams Oshiomole
has also sent condolence messages to the
Efe family.
