Nollywood actress, Doris Ogala has knocked her colleague, Uche Ogbodo for making a case for Adanma Luke, the producer behind the movie that claimed the lives of Junior Pope and others.
Hours ago, Uche Ogbodo had shown her support for Adanma, stating that Adanma was only a victim of circumstances by being the producer of the job as most producers have taken such risks before.
Telling her to stand strong, she questioned what exactly was her crime for people to be calling for her arrest as she noted how Adanma is a young woman hustling to help herself and her family.
Begging Nigerians, she stated that the producer didn’t cause the accident as she had also risked her own life entering the boat without a life jacket.
Reacting to her statement, Doris Ogala stated that though she loves Uche Ogbodo as she is her sister, ignorance is not an excuse. She noted how lives were lost because of Adanma’s low-budget movie.
Doris noted how Junior Pope left behind his wife and kids and the other crew members who died left families behind, she stated that Adanma being a nursing mother shouldn’t be an excuse not to hold her accountable.
“Uche Ogbodo you are my sister and I love you so much. But ignorance is not an excuse. We lost the lives of our members because of Adanma Luke shortcut to archive a movie with low budget by so doing endangering the lives of these innocent people. Let’s remove sentiments and emotions here. Junior Pope left behind his wife and children. The other crew members have families.
So are u saying we should ignore this negligence from Adanma Luke because she’s a nursing mother? No, my girl. Adanma Luke and the owner of that movie should face the law. @emekarollas should stop shielding them
@ucheogbodo my sister’s ignorance is not an excuse. Adamma Luke and the owner of that movie contributed immensely to this tragedy. Let’s remove sentiments and emotions here. Let them face the consequences of their actions which took the lives of our members.. ahhhhhh how could they embark on such a journey without a life jacket? This is totally unacceptable. What kind of stupīd carelessness is that”.
In a previous post, Doris Ogala had called for the arrest of Adanma Luke, and one Ebere over their carelessness. She called out the AGN president, Emeka Rollas for allegedly protecting them.
Recall that Sarah Martins had also dragged Adanma, noting how her recklessness had cost her the lives of people. She described the actress’ movie as a low-budget movie trying to raise local standards without providing the necessary amenities.
Her senior colleagues, Uju Okoli and Destiny Etiko had berated her for her statement and she had later tendered an apology.
The Actors Guild of Nigeria released a public statement, banning actors and actresses from starring in Adanma Luke’s movies till further notice. Her movie, which claimed the life of Junior Pope and crew members has been suspended indefinitely.
