A video showing controversial socialite Sam Larry alongside his late bouncer, Adewale, has re-emerged on social media only hours after the fatal road accident that reportedly claimed the bodyguard’s life.
The footage, believed to be among the last publicly available videos featuring both men together, has sparked renewed conversations online as Nigerians continue to discuss the tragic crash.
Earlier reports indicated that Sam Larry was involved in a devastating accident on the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway after the vehicle transporting him allegedly crashed into a trailer.
Although the socialite survived the collision and is undergoing medical treatment, reports stated that his bouncer, Adewale, lost his life at the scene of the accident.
As news of the crash spread, social media users resurfaced an old video capturing Sam Larry, his late bouncer, and singer Zinoleesky during a public outing.
In the video, Adewale is seen confronting a fan who tried to film Zinoleesky. The encounter quickly turned tense after the bouncer allegedly slapped the fan without any apparent provocation.
However, what stood out to many viewers was the way Sam Larry reacted moments later.
Rather than supporting the bouncer’s conduct, the socialite appeared unhappy with what had happened. He was seen reprimanding Adewale before inviting the fan to come closer and offering an apology over the incident.

@skood009 wrote: “I understand that you may not want cameras in your face all the time, but once you choose the spotlight, people trying to record videos comes with it. Slapping someone just for making a video is unacceptable, and this is why the Nigerian judiciary must truly become the last hope of the common man. If this happened in the US, that guy would already be rich.”
