TheTalk.NG broke the news that the deceased family had released information about his burial arrangements set for May 17th, 2024. 

Many Nigerians online quickly spotted that they didn’t address Junior Pope as “husband’ on his burial flyer. But he was recognised as a ‘father, brother, son and favorite actor’

This set tongues wagging because Junior Pope was married to Jennifer Awele, and they had three sons before his death.

Stanley Ontop speaks on the obituary omission 

The Nollywood practitioner stated that he wanted to say things but was silenced by Nigerians. He added that he had a lot of information but had decided to keep shut because no one believed him when he tried to speak up.

Stanley advised anyone who wanted to know why the word ‘husband’ name was not included on the obituary poster to contact Junior Pope’s immediate family.

“I have a lot of information, but I won’t say anything. The one I said, you people didn’t believe me. So now I won’t give out any information regarding JNR Pope. Mine now is to repost what others posted. I go keep my information to myself.

“All the bloggers looking for what Ontop will say so they go put me for problem. I no talk again o. All the information I have concerning JNR Pope I won’t say one single one. Una go beg for update tire. Ndi Ala.

I been give una free information before Una come dey insult me. One single information Una no go see. Bloody bastarrd. Una dey ask why him family no out husband for the poster? Go and ask him brother”.
