Junior Pope’s Death: Veteran Actress Uche Ogbodo Defends Adanma Luke

Following the outrage that trailed the death of Junior Pope and three others recently on the set of Adanma Luke, Nollywood actress Uche Ogbodo has said, contrary to popular opinion, that Adanma Luke is not “careless.”

Luke had come under severe criticism following the death of actor Junior Pope and three others after their boat capsized on the Anam River in Anambra State while returning from the location of her movie, ‘The Other Side of Life.’

Many have described her as “careless” for not providing life jackets for her cast and crew.

However, during an exchange with fans on her Instagram page, Ogbodo insisted that Luke is not careless, stressing that “mistakes” happen even in Hollywood.

Ogbodo shared a picture of the embattled producer with the caption: “The strongest woman, determined, kind, and soft at heart. Neefe, your life is with you. See this one through. God gat you for life.”

In the comment section, one @miss_airlaa advised Ogbodo not to get involved in the matter, even if the woman in question was her friend, or else she would be scapegoated.

Replying to the comment, Ogbodo wrote: “She [Adanma Luke] is not a careless producer, only mistakes happen, even on Hollywood sets.”
