Nollywood Legends Face Backlash Over Boat Ride to Movie Set, Fans Fear for Their Safety

 

A video featuring Nollywood icons Pete Edochie, Nkem Owoh, and Patience Ozokwor being ferried across a body of water to a movie set has ignited a storm of reactions online, with fans expressing deep concerns over the actors’ safety.

 

The clip, which shows the trio being transported by boat, has sparked a heated debate, with many drawing comparisons to the tragic boat accident that claimed the life of late actor Junior Pope while on his way to a film shoot. Fans are now questioning whether it was wise to transport the legends in such a manner, fearing a similar fate could befall them.

 

One user, Emotionsdoctor, expressed a strong warning, saying: “I am going to hold your hands and warn you, darling, Never pack our legends in one boat like you did here. Let this be the last time, my love.”

 

Social media reactions were filled with both humor and worry. @AdannaPapaya joked, “Daddy Pete no wear vest because even the sea is afraid of him 🤭🤭🤭🤭,” while @promiseEzeocha voiced his confusion, “Why is Chief Pete Edochie not wearing a safeguard? I don’t understand. Is that not risky, sir?”

 

Some comments were more serious, with @Honyfactory urging the authorities to provide safer transportation options, stating: “Abeg, u guys should not be packing up our legends on a boat and risk them like this again. This deal must be very heavy for them to be taking this kind of risk. The state government should provide a chopper for them, please. These people are too valuable to be on water like this.”

 

In a lighter vein, @chinexo8 remarked on Pete Edochie’s calm demeanor, saying, “Pete Edochie is always chewing kolanut, ah ah, he didn’t even wear a life jacket. Man with the water spirit are in good terms.”

 

While the comments showcased a mix of concern and humor, one thing was clear: Nollywood fans are deeply invested in the well-being of their beloved stars. As the video continues to circulate, it remains to be seen whether the film industry will take a closer look at the safety protocols for its actors, especially when it comes to potentially risky travel arrangements.

 

Fans are hopeful that future film productions will prioritize the safety of these icons, who have shaped the Nollywood industry for decades.

According to insiders, friends of Obesere are worried about the potential consequences of the alleged secret affair for his marriage; the associated scandal, heartbreak and the impact on his reputation as his wife was already in the know and reportedly spoiling for a showdown.

 

Sources said the clandestine nature of the saga makes it difficult to know how long their affair has been going on and how often the lovebirds meet or interact.

 

Speaking on the rumour, an ally of Yinka who didn’t want to be named for confidential reasons, said “it is not impossible”, adding that though it wasn’t a public topic yet.

 

“A single lady romancing a married man is part of socializing, especially if both of them have always known and supportive of each other,” the source quipped.

 

Yinka is a single, career woman with kids while Obesere is married. Thus, a close relationship between such high-profile celebrities who interestingly are also showbiz aficionados, is bound to attract intense media attention and public speculation.

 

Calls made to both Yinka and Obesere to confirm the authenticity of this information went unanswered while text messages sent to their known mobile telephone numbers were not replied as at press time.

 

 

_More details in due course…_
