had remained silent, refusing to mourn him and did not also attend his burial.

Stating his reasons, Edochie took to his Facebook page on Tuesday to
reveal that the deceased allegedly betrayed him repeatedly while alive.

According to him,he did not want to say anything about their relationship, but the incessant questions from fans had caused him to finally speak up.

“I didn’t want to say anything till after his burial. I know many asked why I wasn’t there. I took him like a brother and good friend. I was there for him when needed me.

“But he stabbed me in the back, repeatedly. That’s Life.”

The actor’s statement follows a recent picture of his enstranged wife, May Edochie, with the deceased’s widow during a condolence visit shared on social media.

Edochie, however, concluded by saying, he will give more details on his issue with the late Junior Pope soon.

“I’ll drop the full details soon so others can learn from it. Be careful what you wish people, it could come to you,” He added.
