You'll forever be in our hearts, celebrities say as they mourn Junior Pope's death
Celebrities are mourning the death of their friend and colleague Junior Pope who died in the Nollywood boat accident. Today, May 7th, is meant to be his birthday but he is no longer here to read the happy birthday messages from those who hold him dearest to their hearts.
Still, his colleagues took to their pages to wish him a happy birthday, expressing how much they have missed him. Colleagues like Baba Rex, Rachael Okonkwo, and Stanley OnTop took to their pages to wish the deceased a happy birthday while sending prayers to him in heaven.
Junior Pope died on the 10th of April 2024 while returning from a movie shoot in Asaba. The boat capsized and none of its passengers were on a life jacket. This incident led to the death of the actor and four others who have all been buried by their respective families.
