One of the survivor, Actor TC Okafor aka TC Virus has revealed what happened before their boat capsized.
Yesterday the Nigeria entertainment industry was thrown into mourning. Popular Nollywood Actor Junior Pope drowned.
One of the passengers in the boat has narrated what narrated what happened
“When we got to the location, I bought Fanta, I had 10k with me, I sprayed it on the water and gave some to the children in the area.” Actor TC Okafor, one of the survivor of the boat accident, narrates his ordeal.
In an Instagram live, the actor says “On the first day, when Junior pope came to the set, he wasn’t comfortable. Then after a while he said he was leaving.
On the day of the incident, we all gathered at the river to board the boat that would take us to the set. Since we stated the job, I always sit in front, so I can hold the rope.
Junior pope was making a video and I told everyone to put their phones in their pockets.
Only two people wore life jackets; the DOP and Director.
The boat guy was wearing an earpiece and wanted to show his face in Junior Pope’s video.
He jammed one of the canoes in the river and our boat capsized”
