Popular musician, Charly Boy has made some intriguing revelation. This is as he paid tribute to the Ohanaeze Ndigbo leader, late Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu.

He said: “When I returned from the USA 1981, all I had was a dream as a broke Ass Charly Boy wanna be.”

“It was Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu who accidentally met me in my village Oguta, after I disowned my parents for not buying into my dreams.”

“He dashed me $8,000 at the time. I almost fainted. Dat gave me the impetus to build the Brand as I started my Jankara studio in my village. He was the very first Nigerian who supported and believed in my dream.”

“My people, legacy is really about the lives we touched, the inspiration we gave, altering someone’s plan – if even for a moment – and getting them to think, cry, laugh, argue.”

“More than anything, we are remembered for our smiles; the ones we share with our closest and dearest, and the ones we bestow on total strangers, who needed it right then, and God put us there to deliver.”

“Chief I can never forget how out of the blues, you jump started my career. I know many will share similar stories of how you touched their live. I remain ever so grateful. Rest In Peace. Biggest bros/father”.
