Junior Pope: ‘I was supposed to be on that boat’, Adanma Luke breaks silence

Nollywood actress Adanma Luke, who was the producer of the movie titled “The Other Side of Life,” has broken her silence on the incident that led to the deaths of actor Junior Pope and four others.

Junior Pope and four other crew members tragically lost their lives when their boat capsized while returning from a movie location on the River Niger.

Speaking on the incident in videos shared on her Instagram account on Saturday, she revealed that she meant to be on the boat with Junior Pope and others, but she stayed back after her Director of Production asked her to bring the memory card used for filming.

Her words: “I was supposed to be on that boat; my production manager was calling me to bring the memory card so they could start filming, and I told him to come and collect it.

“He said, ‘Mama, you know this place is far; please just bring it for us.’

“I said, ‘Okay, why haven’t you people crossed?’ He said they were waiting for Junior Pope to arrive.

“On the 9th, they went there on their own, Junior Pope came on his own. He came alone.
