Above the sound of a small motorboat speeding down the River Niger, the 42-year-old exclaims, “You see the risks, people, we take to entertain you.”

The Nollywood celebrity passed away the following day. The boat he was traveling in crashed with a fishing canoe, causing him to drown in the same river.
