Nollywood actor, John Ikechukwu Okafor A.K.A Mr. Ibu, has revealed that the reason he is currently at the hospital is that he was poisoned. 

TopNaija recalls that comic actor, Mr. Ibu who is currently receiving treatment at a Kidney center in Abuja stated that the rumors that he is in a critical condition and in need of urgent financial assistance are false.

The actor also informed the public that his Instagram account has been taken over by hackers and fraudsters who are trying to take advantage of his ill health and swindle people’s money on false donations.

On a recent note, speaking with Saturday Beats from his hospital bed, Mr. Ibu admitted that it is the third time he has been poisoned, as he hilariously stated that ‘it seems his enemies are using him to rehearse’ (their powers).

Speaking with Saturday Beats from his hospital bed, Ibu said: “I just got poisoned again. It seems my enemies are using me to rehearse (their powers). This time, I wasn’t poisoned in the village. I was poisoned in Abuja last week at an entertainment event. I really cannot explain how I was poisoned because it was a gathering of people, though it was not a big event.

“I am recuperating, although I have neither walked out nor driven since I got ill. However, I intend to take a walk this (Friday) evening, because I am hopeful that I would get better. I am eating well now, and I’m prepared to go back on set any moment from now.

Also, Mr. Ibu frowned at those soliciting for funds under false pretense.

He added: “Some people have sold me. They have not heard from me and all they want to do is ‘sell me’. But, their plans won’t work because God has raised me up. I am not begging anybody for money. My condition is not as critical as some people are making it seem. Anybody who has made it a point of duty to talk about my sickness and take advantage of it should stop. I am here (hospital) with my wife. I am not saying all my friends that are supposed to visit me and bring me money cannot do that. But, I have never asked anyone to beg people for money on my behalf. They should stop. If I want to die, I would let them know, since they seem to be so interested.”
