Nollywood actor Yul Edochie has claimed that his late colleague, John Odonwodo, popularly called Junior Pope, betrayed him repeatedly despite his being there for him in his times of need.
According to Edochie, it was the reason he shunned the Pope’s burial in Enugu State on Friday.
He mentioned that he wanted to wait until after Junior Pope’s burial before he revealed how the late actor betrayed him.
The actor who ventured into “soul winning” by opening a ministry promised the full story of how Junior Pope betrayed him soon.
In a statement on his Instagram story, Edochie wrote, “I didn’t want to say anything until after his burial. I know many have asked why I wasn’t there. I haven’t said anything about it since.
“I took him like a brother and a good friend. I was there for him when he needed me. But he stabbed me in the back repeatedly. That’s life!
“I’ll drop the full details soon so others can learn from them.
“Be careful what you wish people; it could come to you.”
Junior Pope and four others died on April 10 when their boat capsized in the Anam River while returning from a film shoot.
