Sharing a video of Junior Pope with his wife, Rita Edochie wrote;
“Happy Posthumous Birthday My Great Son Johnpaul Obumneme Odonwodo A.K.A Junior Pope.
Today, the 7th day of May is supposed to have been your birthday my great son Junior Pope and my heart is once more feeling shattered as I am trying to make myself believe that you are not here again. My question is, how comfortable do you feel spending over a month in a land you have never been before all alone 😔 without your wife, children, friends, loved ones, and well-wishers? Ohhh death where is thy sting? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Well, though you’re no longer here with us, but your spirit continues to inspire and uplift us every day. As we reflect on the precious moments we shared, your laughter echoes in our hearts, and your kindness resonates within our souls. Your absence is deeply felt, yet your presence remains vivid in our memories.
