Nigerian socialite Sam Larry has reportedly made his first public appearance after surviving a ghastly accident which claimed his bouncer’s life.
Kemi Filani reported over the weekend that the music promoter was involved in a road accident along the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway in Lagos State. According to reports, the vehicle carrying Larry and his bouncer collided with a trailer, leaving the car severely damaged.
While Larry survived the accident and is reportedly receiving treatment in the hospital, his bouncer lost his life.
In a video captured online, speaking live from the hospital bed, Larry gave fans an update on his situation, saying he is doing well and expected to be discharged soon. He, however, said he can’t walk and would be relying on a wheelchair to move around for a while.
In an update, it seems Sam Larry is hale and hearty, as he has reportedly made his first social outing since the incident.
He was captured on a video making the rounds online, amid his friends as they celebrated him.
The friend who posted the video expressed gratitude to God for his life.
“Thank God for life blood”.
The news has left many outraged, especially knowing that a life was lost.
One King Amen wrote, “This is very insensitive. O. Someone died in that accident, and they are here laughing
One Arsenal Gyokeres wrote, “So they are happy he survived and forgot the bouncer that lost his life; this world is evil
One E! wrote, “So the person that died at the scene isn’t human? Isn’t this too insensitive?
One Femi wrote, “No regard for the life lost? Age doesn’t amount to common sense
One Winning Wunmi wrote, “But the other person lost his life. This is so insensitive, please
One Big Dreams wrote, “Bounder don die, Sam Larry don move on with his life
One Rayy Abdul wrote, “I wonder what the family of the bouncer will be feeling right now seeing this
One teejay_uzo wrote, “Someone passed away, and instead of them being sober, they are shining teeth
One queenellachris wrote, “Na the bouncer I pity, at the end life goes on”.
In 2024, Larry also survived a car crash. Speaking online, he expressed gratitude for his life, saying that God will complete his healing soon.
The news of his survival made many unhappy, and it may have stemmed from the fact that he’s not well liked ever since Mohbad’s death.
Recall that Naira Marley and Sam Larry lost the admiration of Nigerians when a video of Sam assaulting the late Mohbad surfaced online.
The video sparked a flurry of reactions from the online community and led to the cancellation of Naira Marley and his label.
The duo were arrested and kept in police custody for more than five weeks but were released on November 17th after they met their bail conditions. Following their release, the singer and his aide have been engaging in several charitable deeds to win back the hearts of Nigerians.
