Jowizaza has finally spoken out after days of silence following his father's dramatic rescue from kidnappers, and his message to fans was short but loaded with emotion.

His caption was just two words: "Forever grateful 🙏."
Rather than making a lengthy statement, Jowizaza let gospel music do much of the talking, featuring a song by renowned Nigerian gospel artiste Nathaniel Bassey in the background of his post.
Recall that Jowizaza's father was abducted on August 4 while travelling to a prayer ground in Awka, Anambra State. His abduction sent shockwaves through his family, business associates, and the broader Anambra community.

Not everyone kept things solemn, though. A few followers saw an opportunity to have a laugh, with some cheekily requesting bank account details.

Jowizaza's sister drags him
Legit.ng previously reported that tensions within the Ezeokafor family have spilled into the open, with the eldest daughter of kidnapped Anambra businessman Chief Joseph Ezeokafor publicly blaming her younger brother for making their father a target.
Blessing Ezeokafor, in a string of Facebook posts on August 12, directed her frustration squarely at her brother Eberechukwu Ezeokafor, better known as Jowizaza, accusing him of fuelling the crisis through an exaggerated display of wealth on social media.
Her post also captured attention, stirring reactions from Nigerians.
