A video shows Nigerian actor Junior Pope on a boat hours before he succumbed to death. Pope was speaking to the boat captain asking him to slow down.
He later shared the video on his social media and captioned it;
"See me lamenting……The risk we take to entertain you; crossing River Niger yesterday with no life jacket…… Na wahoooooo…Who does that ??" he asked.
In the video, the actor is seen cheekily noting to the captain that he was an only child who is also a father who has kids to raise.
"I got three children, who will raise them? I beg, Oh Jesus, what is this? Don't speed. See the risk we take to entertain you. Live and direct on River Niger," he said jokingly.
Adding, "I am begging the captain that I'm the only child and I have three boys, I will raise them. Calm down with the speed."
The actor is said to have drowned on the same river while on his way back from the shoot.
