Leave her alone to bury her husband – Rita Edochie, Chinwe Owoh begs Nigerians over Junior Pope’s wife

Nigerian actresses Rita Edochie and Chinwe Owoh have made a sincere request to the people of Nigeria concerning the wife of their late colleague, Junior Pope, Jennifer Awele.

In a widely shared video recorded at the burial of the actor in Enugu State on Friday, the Nollywood veterans urged Nigerians to allow Jennifer to grieve her husband, emphasizing that conflicts can arise in any marriage.

Their appeal comes in response to rumors suggesting that Junior Pope and his wife had a strained relationship prior to his untimely demise.

Chinwe Owoh said, “Junior Pope’s wife, they should leave her alone! There’s nobody who doesn’t have misunderstandings in their home. Even if they had misunderstandings, they should leave that girl alone. Leave her alone to bury her husband quietly for his soul to rest in peace.”

Rita Edochie inferred, “And who even said they were having issues? Junior Pope is gone. Everybody is saying different versions of what they want.

“I beg God to accept his soul. He’s a good man, one person with no form of discrimination against any human being. Anywhere he is, if spirits can see, he should protect his family. People who are saying he was killed are the killers in charge of their own lives? People should stop talking rubbish.

“Social media has done more harm than good. Someone that’s full of life lost his life, but instead of them to rest, they’re stressing his wife again. Every mouth in charge of this foul information, God will judge you. Leave someone who is innocent to have peace of mind.”

Recall that Junior Pope’s funeral poster had caused controversy online after many fans raised alarm that on the obituary poster, ‘husband’, was noticeably absent.

However, the late actor’s family clarified that they didn’t authorize the burial poster and later corrected it to include his wife.
