According to E-Money, Jnr Pope had pleaded with the boat pilot to move carefully because he had three sons and was going to raise them. In line with that, the wealthy businessman pledged that his family would take care of the late actor’s sons.
He wrote in part:
“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. ”
