Nollywood has been thrown into mourning following the sad demise of Nollywood actor, Junior Pope. The actor and three of his colleagues were coming back from a movie location in a boat when they fell into Anam River in Anambra state.
Their bodies have since been recovered.
Hours ago, the actor shared a video of himself taken yesterday in a boat and praying frantically to arrive at his destination safely. The accident unfortunately happened on his way back from the location today April 10th.
He was 39 years old.
The actor is survived by his wife and three children. May his soul rest in peace, Amen.
Watch the video he shared below

Very, very sad news! In a more reasonable environment, the family would sue the movie director or producer, whose responsibility it is to ensure ‘safe’ transportation for actors to their locations. Typically, this condition for logistics is included in the contract. Unfortunately, in Nollywood, many actors are simply grateful to get roles. I cannot imagine how his family must feel, especially considering he often mentioned being the only child and wanting to raise his three sons. May his soul rest in peace. Amen 🙏
