Seyi Law was emotional when the topic came up because Chuks is as brother to him.

He said: “Chuks is one of the very few comedians that understands what loyalty is about. He is a humble person and the one that is there for a lot of comedians when they come in from Lagos. I will tell you the truth, for everything I land in Abuja, Chuks is always or most of the time at the airport to pick me up. That is the height of humility.

“Not everybody can do that. And for me, that touches my heart. I don’t know to say thank you to him, this is the only thing I can do to say I appreciate you. It’s an emotional one for me. God will continue to bless him for the effort that he puts into making other people happy. God will never stop blessing him.”
