Renowned Nigerian actor, John Okafor, widely known as Mr. Ibu, has recently undergone two successful surgeries after he made a heartfelt plea for financial assistance on social media.
This was confirmed by Jazmine Okafor, the actor’s adopted daughter.
She shared an update on Ibu’s health via Instagram on Tuesday morning.
“Never seen anyone so strong… even after two major surgeries, you were still trying to be funny like nothing happened, even in your lowest you still cracked jokes!” she wrote.
“I promise you, if there’s a God in heaven, you are getting out of this bed, stronger and alive. This is the strongest I have seen you in 3 weeks and I’m so excited! Fight this and get well soon, sweet papa.”
