By Francesca Hangeior
In a recent development, actor T.C. Okafor has shared some more insights on actor Junior Pope Odonwodo’s death.
In a video which is making rounds on social media, he shared exactly what happened during the moments before Junior Pope died.
He revealed that they were all on the boats and what has started on a great note had soon turned ghastly.
He further stated that at some point during the boat ride, he had poured Fanta into the water while also feeding the river some crumbs of what he was eating.
He started that Junior Pope had inquired about what he was doing and he had revealed that he did not want anything bad to happen to him hence, while he was doing what he was doing.
Junior Pope on the other hand, had completely agreed with him.
The actor shares that he believes strongly that his act of pouring Fanta and other stuff into the water had played a pivotal role in him not dying.
Netizens also took to the comment section to agree with him as they shared stories of how important it was to appease the water goddesses before embarking on a trip on water.
Now recall that the Junior Pope had died in a drowning incident in Anambra State.
It was reported that he had drowned while he was on his way back from a movie location with his colleagues in a boat when they fell into Anam River in Anambra State.
Their bodies have since been recovered.
Before his death, the actor had shared a video of himself on a boat, praying frantically to arrive at his destination safely.

‘I’m disappointed’ – Iyabo Ojo berates 2Baba for announcing separation from Annie
Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo, has expressed dissatisfaction over singer 2Baba’s recent public announcement that he and his wife, Annie, are headed for a divorce.
In an Instagram post, Ojo faulted the timing of the ‘African Queen’ crooner’s announcement, emphasising that the singer’s action was unempathic considering that Annie was already facing backlash over her appearance on the Young, Famous & African reality show.
She wrote, “A heartfelt reminder to couples: when love fades, prioritize your children’s well-being. As parents, sacrifices are essential. Never abandon loved ones in their darkest moments, even if separation or divorce is Inevitable.
“Let’s emphasize empathy and our children’s mental health. Sensitive issues shouldn’t be publicly aired; social media sometimes disregards the well-being of those involved.
@official 2, 2baba, I adore you both, but this timing was off. Adding fuel to the fire, burning the mother of your kids who’s already vulnerable. Is so unempathic, I’m disappointed.”
Ojo prayed for Annie Idibia as she wished her inner strength to prioritize her children’s needs, adding that the present storm shall pass.

Divorce: Toke Makinwa takes a swipe at 2baba
*Tells him to be ashamed of himself
By Francesca Hangeior
Media personality Toke Makinwa has slammed artist 2Baba for publicly revealing that he and his wife, Annie, are getting a divorce.
Recall that in an Instagram post on Sunday, 2Baba revealed that they had been separated for some time and are now in the process of filing for divorce, putting an end to their 12-year marriage.
Responding directly to the video posted by 2Baba on Instagram, where he confessed to making the controversial divorce announcement, Toke wrote, “This is wrong on all levels, and you should be ashamed of yourself for bringing this here. Bring it on. If you think she’s alone, let me tell you here that you’ll have to fight all of us.”
Toke expressed her frustration further by posting a message on her Instagram story, targeting those remaining neutral on the issue.
She wrote, “I’m not one for too much talk, but what is wrong is wrong, and as a woman, if you sit on the fence on this one, if it misses you, it’ll touch your daughter or any female in your family.
“No one is innocent, and if you want to bring the media into it, knowing what is happening, we would fight for her.”
Undeterred, Makinwa, in another Instagram story post on Monday, questioned 2Baba’s decision to bring the divorce to the public, emphasising that the full truth will be revealed in due time.
“Nobody is asking anybody to stay in a situation that’s not serving them any purpose anymore; by all means, leave if you must, but why bring this online this very moment?
“We know what is going on behind closed doors. The world doesn’t know anything; it’s already been hectic with opinions flying around, and when I say we will fight for her, I’m not talking about the general public.
“A handful of people know the truth, and time will tell. Timing is everything; empathy is everything. You constantly preach love; you cannot add to the narrative that’s out there when you know what is really happening behind closed doors,” she wrote.
