The Actors Guild of Nigeria has stopped all film productions involving riverine areas and boat rides following the tragic boat accident that claimed the life of Nollywood actor, Junior Pope, and three crew members.
The Guild’s President, Ejezie Rollas, disclosed this via his social media on Thursday, where he officially confirmed the passing of Nollywood actor John Paul Odonwodo.
Recall that on Wednesday, the actor, along with three others, tragically passed away after their boat capsized in the Anam River in Anambra State at a film location.
Rollas noted that while he initially announced Junior Pope’s survival in excitement upon noticing the tingling of his fingers, he eventually passed away after attempts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful.
