Ruby Ojiakor has been receiving criticism online for her extended period of mourning for her late colleague and friend, Junior Pope, who tragically passed away in a boat accident in Anambra state.
The incident, which happened a few weeks ago, left the entertainment industry and fans in deep sorrow.
Since the news broke, Ruby Ojiakor has openly expressed her profound sadness over Junior Pope’s death.
However, her ongoing mourning has caused some people to question her actions.
Recently, she posted a touching photo of herself and the late actor on her Instagram account, accompanied by heartfelt words.
She wrote;
“Exactly one month today at UKEHE… Forever in our hearts my Friend and biggest bro ‘AKPA SWAG’ 🙏😭 IT IS WELL 🙏 HE LIVES ON 🙌.”
While many of her followers and fans have offered words of comfort and support during this difficult time, others have criticized her for what they perceive as an excessively prolonged period of mourning.
The backlash intensified after reports surfaced that Junior Pope’s wife unfollowed Ruby Ojiakor on social media, prompting a wave of speculation.

oriretan_honour commented: “RudyOjiakor, it’s unwîse how u’re not letting Jnr.Pope rest in peace with all this clout chasing video u’re posting up & down as content to draw traffic to ur media handles. More unwîse not knowing u’re now mourning than his late widow. He isn’t ur husband remember. Most unwîse how everybody got pained over his untimely demise but seems ur own pain is becoming unwîse. Stop making mourning boring fr ppl. Avoid making fans think there are secrets u’re hiding amidst ur r’ship with Jnr.Pope. Limit reminding emotional ppl of the past. Think smart. Be wise. Don’t be unwîse”
