Socialite and businessman Emeka Okonkwo, popularly known as E-Money, has congratulated comedian and livestreamer Carter Efe after his victory over controversial singer Portable, also confirming his pledge of N50 million to the winner.
Carter Efe emerged victorious in the celebrity boxing clash held early Saturday, with all three judges scoring the bout 27–30 in his favour.
