The tears have barely dried, and the hearts are still heavy with grief, following the tragic loss of Junior Pope and four others in the Anam River accident - a stark reminder of the devastating consequences of ignoring safety protocols. And now, a chilling video of Mide Martins, Ayo Olaiya, and over 10 others on a boat at the far center of river, without life jackets in sight, has left fans who stumbled upon it screaming 'Where are your life jackets, is safety really too much to ask?' and wondering why our beloved movie stars can't seem to grasp the importance of safety first! and are not weary of the harsh reminder that even the brightest stars can fade in an instant if they don't prioritize caution.
