He also penned an emotional tribute to honour his late mother. Find below:

 

“My dearest Mother,

You couldn’t just wait for me to come back before
you sneaked away to the great beyond.
Now all I have are beautiful loving Kodak memories of our times
together.

You tried for me, for us and many of the people who
were privileged to encounter your kindness and your love.
Thank you for allowing me take care of you.

Thank you for being That Great Woman who gave birth to
The Icon, CharlyBoy.

Thank you for teaching me how to care, to love, to live a simple
and humble Life.

Thank you for constantly reminding of my pedigree and
my very Rich Heritage.

I wish you would have waited just one more day, but I guess
you didn’t want me to see you go, because as usual I would
have talked you out of it, I know we both hate goodbyes.

Greet Papa when you see him, tell him I have been holding
forth. Gallant as ever.

Love you my Darling Mother.
RIP.”

It would be recalled that Charly Boy was one of the many Nigerians that criticised the result of the 2019 election. Shortly after President Muhammadu Buhari was announced winner of the election, Charly Boy hailed him and his ‘cabal brothers’ for how smartly they operated in the politics of Nigeria.
