A video of the late actor Junior Pope recounting how he met his wife has resurfaced on social media, gaining viral attention once again.

Recall that the actor died when the boat carrying him and four others capsized on the Anam River in Anambra state while returning from a movie location.

The viral recording showcases the late actor reminiscing about the encounter that led to their union.

Jnr Pope recounted how he inadvertently shared his phone number during a film shoot, prompting numerous calls, including one from his future wife.

The late father of three recalled how he remained steadfast in his pursuit of love despite facing opposition from his wife’s family, including stern warnings and threats of arrest.

Undeterred by the challenges, he said he persisted in building a lasting relationship, culminating in a four-year courtship before exchanging marital vows.

He said in parts: “I mistakenly called my phone number on that movie. One of the callers that called me after the movie was this lady seated here, she called me…I told her to send a message on Facebook so I could see her face, she wrote to me on Facebook and I got in touch with her…I drove down to the traffic light to see her.

“While dating her, her father threatened me, I received a call one day and the voice said ‘I will lock you up’, I did not give up.”
