Nigerian Billionaire, E-Money Grants Junior Pope’s Last Vow Before Sudden Death

Nigerian billionaire, Emeka Okonkwo, aka E-money, has adopted the children of late Nollywood actor, John Paul Odowondo, aka Junior Pope.

9JaGistreel.com reports that E-money said in a post on his official Instagram page on Wednesday that he is committed to honoring the wishes of the late actor.

Keep in mind that Junior Pope and four crew members of the Nollywood died in a river in Anambra State last Wednesday while returning from a movie shoot.

In the latest video shared on his Instagram page, Junior Pope complained about the lack of a life jacket and the risks they take to entertain their fans.

Part of the statement read: “Na Only Me Dem Born ooo, I Get Three Children, Na Me Go Raise Them.”

Reacting to the statement, E-money promised to support Junior Pope’s children, adding that they are now part of the Okonkwo family.

He wrote,

“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 honoring 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.”
