The Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN) has threatened to take legal action against Adanma Luke and the Association of Movie Producers (AMP) over the death of Junior Pope and others.

The AGN president Emeka Rollas disclosed this in an interview with Arise News on Friday.

He said in part:

Our lawyers are already preparing documents because this matter is actionable. Im only waiting for the small committee we have set up to give me the report on all that happened.

I also learnt that not only the day that Junior Pope died, the previous day, they still went on a boat without life jackets.

The Association of Movie Producers will hear from our lawyers, the Adanma Luke Production will also hear from our lawyers.

Junior Pope was confirmed dead on the night of April 10 after several attempts to resuscitate him failed. The actor alongside make-up artist Abigail Frederick, and the production crew; Friday, Olanti and Precious drowned in Anam River on their way back from the set of Another Side of Life, a movie produced by Adanma Luke.

Adanma Luke was accused of negligence, following claims that she did not provide life jackets for her crew, a claim she later debunked, saying that life jackets were free and available but Junior Pope rejected his because it was dirty.

Adanma Luke has also been suspended indefinitely by the Association of Movie Producers, AMP and Actors Guild of Nigeria, AGN.
