Nollywood veterans, Rita Edochie and Chinwo Owoh have made heartfelt appeals to Nigerians regarding Junior Pope’s wife following his death.
In a video from his funeral, they urged Nigerians to allow the actor’s wife to mourn in peace, noting that misunderstandings happen in every family.
Rita Edochie questioned the source of rumors about marital issues between Junior Pope and his wife.
She emphasized that she should be allowed to grieve quietly, criticizing those spreading false rumors online. Rita prayed for God to accept Junior Pope’s soul, highlighting his good nature and lack of discrimination.
She also prayed for protection upon the deceased actor’s family from above and addressed rumours of his alleged murder.
In Chinwo words:
“Junior Pope’s wife, they should leave her alone! There’s nobody that doesn’t have misunderstandings in their home. Even if they had misunderstandings they should leave that girl alone (Rita – and who even said they were having issues?) Leave her alone to bury her husband quietly for his soul to rest in peace”
Speaking, Rita Edochie said:
“Junior Pope is gone. Everybody is saying different versions of what they want. I beg God to accept his soul. He’s a good man, one person with no form of discrimination again any human being. Anywhere he is, if spirits can see, he should protect his family. People who are saying he was k!lled, are the killers in charge of their own lives? People should stop talking rubbish. Social media has done more harm than good. Someone that’s full of life, he lost his life instead of them to rest, they’re stressing his wife again. Every mouth in charge of these foul information, God will judge you. Leave someone who is innocent to have peace of mind”.
