Category: Entertainment News
The family of Nollywood veteran comedian actor, John Okafor, fondly known as Mr. Ibu, has released an update on his health condition.
It was revealed in October, while the famous comic actor was marking his 62nd birthday at a hospital in Lagos, that he was in urgent need of attention over his health, resulting from a medical condition which appeared to have turned the legs into an eyesore, with severe wounds.
Social media influencer, VeryDarkBlackMan, in a new video he released via his Instagram page on Monday, November 6, revealed Mr. Ibu’s leg had been amputated.
In a recent official statement regarding Mr. Ibu’s health, the family has affirmed that one of his legs has been amputated as a temporary measure to stabilize him.
They emphasized that the Veteran Actor still requires all the assistance he can receive, particularly because the other leg is in a fragile state.
According to them, Mr. Ibu has undergone seven successful surgeries, but to preserve his life and enhance his prospects of recuperation, the decision was made to amputate one of his legs.
The family expressed their gratitude to everyone for their support, recognizing the significance of the assistance provided during this time.
