Family Releases Actor Junior Pope’s Funeral Arrangement

The funeral arrangement of late actor, Junior Pope has been released by his family.

 

Glamtush reports that the family of the late Nollywood actor, John Odonwodo, popularly known as Junior Pope, has announced his burial arrangements.

This online news platform recalls that the 43-year-old actor tragically lost his life along with four crew members on April 10 in a boat accident on the River Niger while returning from a movie shoot titled, “The Other Side of Life” by filmmaker Adanma Luke.

On Friday, April 26, the family of the deceased actor released his obituary poster in which he was described as a son, father, uncle and favourite superstar.

However, Nigerians are wondering why ‘Husband’ was not included in Jnr Pope’s funeral arrangement announcement.

The funeral proceedings commenced on April 23 with a requiem mass at Saint John-Mary Vianney Parish in Asaba, Delta State.

Another requiem mass is scheduled for May 13 at Christ the King Catholic Parish in G.R.A, Enugu.

Tributes and a candlelight event will take place at Amadeo Event Center in Enugu on May 14.

On May 16, a wake will be held at his hometown, Uwala Abaka, Ukehe, in Nsukkaa, Igboetiti LGA of Enugu State.

The interment will follow the burial mass at St. Peter’s Parish, Ukehe, on May 17. A final thanksgiving mass is planned for Sunday, May 19, at St. Peter’s Parish Ukche Nsukkaa, Igboetiti LGA, Enugu.
