Jennifer Odowondo, the widow of the late actor Junior Pope, has posted a touching message to commemorate her late husband's posthumous birthday.
Jennifer shared this on her Instagram page on Wednesday, which would have been Junior Pope's 45th birthday.
Reflecting on her loss, Jennifer shared some memories of him and their three sons.
“You asked my birth date…. I asked for yours and you said the last day in the first week of May. And I said 7th??? You said, ‘Smart,’ with a clap. It’s May 7th, 2025, and I’m not celebrating you with my different birthday surprises (I doubt I missed any), not with candles and cakes, but with tears and memories and a heart that still beats in rhythm with yours” she wrote.
She also expressed her pain, asking him to keep watch over her and the children.
“I Had A Lot In Mind To Type But At This Point, Words Fail Me. Happy 45th Birthday Our Daddy In Heaven. We Carry Your Love In Everything We Do. Keep Watching Over Us Debonair,” She wrote.
The Nollywood actor, Junior Pope, passed away on the 10th of April, 2024, following a boat accident.
The actor was travelling with others to Asaba, Delta State, for a film shoot when he tragically lost his life.
