In an Instagram post, Ini Edo wrote:
“Jnr Pope did not have to sacrifice his life for Nollywood to realize the need for a long and much needed regulatory structure that would safeguard an entire production .
“Yes .. every one is a producer now and all are guilty of negligence of some sort.. and this has to stop. This is one sacrifice too many and must count for something … H that caters to everyone in cases of emergencies…. I will never understand why the good ones go so soon.
“Rest on brother … This one cuts really deep.”
