WRITTEN BY: CHIOMA MADONNA NDUKWU

The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has designated 30 representatives from five states—Delta, Imo, Abia, Anambra, and Enugu—to manage the logistics for the burial of esteemed actor John Paul Odonwodo, known as Junior Pope, who tragically died in a boat accident in April.

AGN President Emeka Rollas announced this on Tuesday and emphasized a ban on unauthorized picture taking and video recording during the ceremony. Only officially approved photographers and accredited press, with the family’s consent, will be permitted to cover the event. The union has also suspended filming in riverine areas and boat scenes indefinitely following the incident.
