Following the report that Nollywood actor, Pope Odonwodo, popularly known as Junior Pope passed away during a movie shoot in Delta state, a source who spoke with ABN TV says the veteran entertainer may be alive.
The news of his death was shared on Wednesday, April 10, by filmmaker, Samuel Olatunji.
He said that the actor, along with three others, lost their lives when their boat capsized.
“Four actors, including Jnr Pope, fell into Anam River on their way to a location, and their bodies have been recovered.
“What a sad day for Nollywood. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family,” Olatunji wrote on his Instagram page.
However a source privy to the information told ABN TV that the veteran entertainer may be alive.
He said Junior Pope was removed from mortuary before he could be embalmed.
The source said one of river priests had demanded that the body of Junior Pope be brought to him.
It was reported that his body was discovered to be alive, before he was transported to the priest.
