Nigerian billionaire businessman, Emeka Okonkwo, widely known as E-Money, has made a heartfelt pledge to support and nurture the children of his late friend, actor Pope Odonwodo, also known as Junior Pope.
In a touching message shared on his Instagram page, E-Money noted how it has been one week since the actor departed from this world, leaving behind a profound sense of loss that reverberates in Africa and beyond.
“It has been one week since you departed from this world, leaving behind a profound sense of loss that reverberates not only among us but also across Africa and beyond. Your presence, as both a friend and a brother, is deeply missed, JP. The weight of your absence bears heavily upon our hearts, yet we draw comfort from the belief that God will grant us the resilience to carry forward and uphold the legacy you’ve entrusted to us. We tenderly remember your final words on the boat, “NA ONLY ME DEM BORN I GET 3 CHILDREN NA ME GO RAISE THEM,” and we solemnly commit to honouring that vow. Your children now find solace in the embrace of the Okonkwo family, and we, as members of that family, pledge to nurture them as you would have wished. Your absence leaves a palpable void, JP and your memory will forever be held dear. Rest peacefully, knowing that you are deeply cherished, and may God’s blessings encompass your soul, your family, and all who hold you in their hearts.
Recalling Junior Pope’s final words aboard a boat where he expressed his commitment to caring for his three children, E-Money vowed to honor that promise alongside his family. He assured that the children would find comfort and support within the embrace of the Okonkwo family, promising to nurture them as Junior Pope would have wished.
Junior Pope tragically passed away on Wednesday, April 10, after drowning while returning from a movie location with his colleagues in a boat on the Anam River in Anambra State. Despite efforts to revive him, he eventually succumbed at the hospital.
