Following pleas for financial assistance for the ailing policewoman, Helen Utabor, who gained recognition through the viral clip ‘Epp me,’ renowned singer, Asake has stepped forward to make a significant contribution.

Asake’s intervention in the plight of the policewoman whose ‘epp me’ outcry after she was reportedly abducted turned viral, is in the face of reports of health challenges after reportedly being struck by a vehicle while directing traffic in Edo State.

The initiative to support Helen started when popular comedian I Go Save shared a video on his Instagram page, shedding light on the policewoman’s condition. According to I Go Save, Helen required 1.5 million naira for medical treatment. The news quickly gained traction on social media, with users rallying to encourage Asake, the YBNL music star, to extend a helping hand to the ailing officer.

A notable aspect of the online conversation was the insistence from many social media users that Asake owed the policewoman royalties for using her viral ‘epp me epp me’ phrase as an introduction in his hit song ‘Peace Be Unto You.’ The viral phrase had become synonymous with Asake’s music and contributed to the popularity of the track.
