Uche Ogbodo claims Adanma Luke is not culpable for Junior Pope’s death
Uche Ogbodo has spoken up for Adanma Luke, the producer of the forthcoming movie that Junior Pope, the late actor, was supposed to feature in.
Pope died in a boat mishap on April 10 while being ferried across the Asaba end of the River Nigeria in Delta state.
It was stated that the actor, a father of three, was on his way to a movie set when he drowned.
He passed away alongside four other crew members in the boat accident.
Footage from the ride had showed him in the boat without a life jacket.
Pope’s demise spurred discussions about the general disregard for safety protocols on movie sets.
Adanma Luke, in the heat of public backlash, was suspended by the Association of Movie Producers (AMP).
In a series of posts via her Instagram story, Ogbodo condemned those who suggested she remain silent on the matter.
The actress described Luke as a “friend” and added that the producer is not culpable for the tragedy that befell the boat riders.
“Do not tell me not to support my friend who has always supported me!” Ogbodo wrote.
“I am a loyal friend! Show me through your love and I will follow you through hell if I have to! Adanma Luke is innocent.
“All the people saying it is the wrong time! I have one question for you.
“When is the right time? Huh? When she is already arrested and sentenced for what she knows nothing about?”
Earlier, Blessing Ebigieson, the AMP president, also defended Luke against accusations of negligence.
She claimed that the producer had provided life jackets for the crew but Pope refused to wear one, saying it was “dirty”.
Ebigieson added that Pope had the option to leave the set if he did not like the life jacket.

Toyin Abraham: How gossip fueled rivalry between Funke Akindele and I
Toyin Abraham, the Nigerian actress, has opened up about her past rivalry with Funke Akindele, her colleague.
Rumours of a feud between the actresses swirled after Abraham released ‘The Ghost and the Tout Too’ in 2021.
In a post on Instagram, Abraham revealed that her rift with Akindele was fueled by industry gossip.
She explained that the rumours caused “damage” and fostered unhealthy competition.
Toyin Abraham stated that the tide began to turn with maturity and she realised they can both thrive without negativity.
She congratulated Akindele on her box office success with ‘A Tribe Called Judah’ and called for unity in the movie industry.
“The number one cause of fights in the industry then was ‘he said, she said’ before the social media era. Dear Nollywood people, let me chip this in, stop tearing the industry down with your gossip,” she wrote.
“You have caused lots of damage with ‘he-said, she-said’. In those days of the Yoruba film industry, @funkejenifaakindele was number one after the likes of Aunty Bukky and Aunty Faithia. I was the next in line.
“The competition was much and with many gossips in between, we became competitors and persona non grata. She moved on to the English industry, I became number one before moving on too.
“Aunty Funke and I continued the rivalry sort of. It pitted our fans against each other. We are two competitive Virgo women, we love to win and sometimes in that process, we splash dirt and mud.
“But with time, age, and more wisdom, I have realised we can compete without being negatively competitive. Aunty Funke, I celebrate you for showing us what is possible. You are a winner. You sold over 1B, you made it possible for other women to dream.”
