“The late Amaka Igwe paid part of my legal fees, she was always in contact with me and never abandoned me. She took me under her tutelage after I was freed from prison and taught me directing. While others paid to learn directing , she taught me for free. I was to direct the job she was working on before she died. Up till now, I can’t bring myself to delete her telephone number. I still hear her voice sometimes. She was a good woman,” he said.
Odoputa also acknowledged the assistance he got John Okafor, popularly known as Mr. Ibu.
He said, “He used to send me recharge cards which I sold. That enabled me to take care of myself when I was imprisoned.”
Odoputa , who now lives in Port Harcourt, said the relocation was necessary to enable him plan his life.
“I need some sanity and time to decongest my brain. Things were moving too fast in Lagos, so I relocated to Port Harcourt.”
