Officials of the Nigeria Police have arrested of one of those accusing popular businessman and record label owner, Emeka Okonkwo, simply known as E-Money, of having an affair with Late Junior Pope’s widow, and having a hand in the death of the Nollywood actor.
E-Money made the announcement on his Instagram account on Thursday, barely a week after he debunked all allegations about having romantic affairs with Junior Pope’s widow, Jennifer Awele.
Following the allegations, E-money had expressed his intentions towards bringing the social media content creators and bloggers who had accused him to book and urged the public to cooperate with him on that quest.
He posted a video of one of the apprehended suspect in handcuffs with the caption: “I’m relieved to share that one of the individuals responsible for the character assassination against me has been prosecuted. This is a significant step towards ending the scourge of cyber bullying.”
He extended his gratitude to the Police for fishing out one of two social media influencers and numerous bloggers who accused him.
E-money had made a commitment to care for the three sons of late actor who died in a boat accident in Anambra State.
The actor lost his life in the boating mishap while returning from a film shoot.
Prior to the accident, Junior Pope recorded a video urging the boat operator to proceed cautiously and reduce speed, expressing concern as he was the sole caretaker for his sons.
Regrettably, he did not survive the accident, leaving behind a wife and three young boys.
Taking to Instagram, E-money pledged to provide for Junior Pope’s children, declaring them his own responsibility and promising to treat them as his own sons.
