It’s a long week of drama in Nollywood. Today, we will look into the most interesting ones of them all.
Ruby Ojiakor, a Nollywood actress, and Jennifer Awele, the widow of late actor Junior Pope, appear to have parted ways.
Ruby, who was best friends with the actor before his sad death, appears to have split up with his wife for unclear reasons.
Social media users have voiced diverse views after Junior Pope’s wife and Ruby Orjiakor unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Ruby Orjiakor has made headlines for her disagreements with movie producer Adanma Luke and colleague actor Nosa Rex. Ruby observed that, while the actor’s spirit had hardly rested, his friend, Baba Rex, was reportedly already utilizing him for fodder.
Remember that movie producer Adanma Luke, when clapping back at Ruby Ojiakor, told her that it was time she revealed to the world the full truth about why she was grieving over the actor’s death more than the bereaved, implying that Ruby’s connection with JP was more than just friends.
During the internet uproar, Junior Pope’s wife and Ruby Orjiakor unfollowed each other on Instagram. Many netizens do not know why the two women unfollowed one other, but some have expressed their thoughts.
Barbiesfy stated, “Ruby and JP obviously had a secret relationship, and Ruby was going to be his next wife if he had stayed alive because marriage with Jennifer was shaking.”
One Yul Judy 4eva wrote, “Adanma Luke don update Jenifer.”
One Jane Auslo said, “Why she no go unfollow am? Ruby’s attitude lately has me furious off. What nonsense? She even dresses in white like a widow”.
Tina Vicky wrote, “Ruby sef u don mourn reach, unless there is something there, because people are beginning to question you”.
One Angelus Wholesale Kiddies wrote, “JP was a husband and father figure; his death is extremely terrible”.
One Kweenchygor30 wrote, “Is he your husband? What is all this drama about?”
The funeral poster for Junior Pope, who was married to Jennifer Awele and had three sons, sparked debate among fans due to the absence of the word ‘husband’.
His family said in a statement that they did not approve the burial poster and later modified it to include his wife. In response to questions about why ‘Husband’ was not included in Junior Pope’s obituary, movie producer Stanley Nwoko suggested asking the late actor’s brother instead.
He mentioned how he tried to speak up, but Nigerians shut him up, claiming that he had a lot of knowledge but wouldn’t say anything because no one believed him when he wanted to speak up.
Before his death, actor Dave Ogbeni suggested that things were not going well in his marriage, sharing his last contact with JP. He claimed that the actor shouted out to him that he was dying slowly and wanted to share his experience with bloggers, but he persuaded him not to.
A Twitter user, identified as Papi Jnr, accused Junior Pope’s wife, Jennifer Awele, of sleeping with rich men and causing problems in the actor’s life.
