Zubby Michael storms Junior Pope’s funeral with heavy security, days after drama with Angela Okorie (Video)

Nollywood actor Zubby Michael was among the Nollywood stars paying their last respect to their late colleague, Junior Pope.

Kemi Filani reported in April that the talented actor lost his life after drowning at Anam River in Anambra State while returning from a movie set. A month after his death, the actor is finally being laid to rest in his hometown in Ukehe, Enugu State.

In a video captured online, Zubby Michael, who was believed to have had a fallen out with the late actor before his death, was seen at his funeral with heavy security.

The actor, alongside E-Money, KCee, Destiny Etiko, Queen Wokoma, Ruby Ojiakor, Rita Edochie, and Chinwe Owoh, were among those spotted at the funeral.

Following his death, netizens dragged Zubby Michael, who was the best man at his wedding, for not publicly mourning him.

Reacting to the criticisms, he told his critics to rest as he noted how not everything needs to be posted.

Angela Okorie had weighed in on the draggings, making it known that Zubby can never put up such a post because he knows why he is running. She noted how Zubby is fighting everyone in the industry because he wants to be the number one in Nollywood. Meanwhile, Junior Pope was his senior.

In another post, she noted how Zubby was Junior Pope’s best man during his wedding, yet he didn’t acknowledge him during his death.

She slammed the actor, noting how he isn’t anybody’s friend because of his envy and obsession with being number 1, and rained curses on him.
