Nancy Isime has broken her silence on why she didn’t post nor mourn the death of Junior pope and 4 other crew members who died in a boat mishap, on social media.

Nigerian actress cum media personality, Nancy Isime has revealed why she did not post pictures of her colleague Junior Pope and other crew members who died in a boat accident.

Junior Pope passed away on the night of April 10 after several attempts to resuscitate him failed. The actor alongside make-up artist Abigail Frederick, and the production crew; Friday, Olanti and Precious drowned in Anam River on their way back from the set of Another Side of Life, a movie produced by Adanma Luke.

Reacting to the tragic incident in an Instagram story on Tuesday, Nancy who has been silent about the loss in Nollywood said she filmed with one of the victims but will not post their pictures because it is against her policy to announce people’s tragedies.

Nancy Isime also prayed for the families of the deceased that they be strengthened despite their loss.

“Phew! Last week was tough mehn! The tragedy that hit Nollywood was something I couldn’t even imagine! Felt like a horror movie script.

“Hit me a little hard because I had filmed with one of the victims not too long ago. Pardon me but I won’t be calling names, going into details or posting pictures. If you don’t know about the disaster, good for you. Trust me!

“It’s SO Sad! I however have a policy to not announce people’s tragedies. It’s not my place. Especially if I barely talked about their Victories. They have families who deserve the right to tell the story how they please, if and how they want to.”

In another post, Nancy Isime added:

“Praying that God wraps his arms around their families. SO tight! So tight that they feel a kind of peace that they can’t even explain. I lost my mum donkey years ago and it still hurts like she just left the house yesterday, I know asking God to take away the pain is a Lie.

“My prayer is that God helps them deal with their pain a way that it doesn’t get in the way of their daily lives, and that he preserves their mental health, their hearts and their spirit. May He give them some kind of closure.”
