I was poisoned——John Okafor (Mr. Ibu)

In a video trending online, popular Nollywood comic actor, John Okafor, alias ‘Mr. Ibu’, recounts his personal staff poisoned him. Mr. Ibu says he almost died after taking the poison, but God saved him.

He says his stomach grew bigger after he was poisoned, but that he has been taking medicine so it has reduced to the point where he can see his feet.

The film star was tricked into going to Nnewi, Anambra state. On getting there, he was beaten to a pulp and given poison to drink.

“They took me to Nnewi, saying we had a show. They held me there and beat me up. They beat me and then inserted poison in my mouth and ran away, leaving me there. It was my boys and dancers that came and carried me home. It was in Enugu that I woke up. God said no, you are not going yet.” he said

Speaking further, the actor said; “Here in my office, they brought the first poison, I took it. I was falling around and nobody came to ask. Even the workers did not enter here even though they were hearing me fall around. I vomited something in my bathroom. They gave me the second one, The people that gave me are the people working with me. I swallowed another one unknowingly because I never suspected them until when God opened my eyes. They paid them and gave them enough money to make sure they eliminate me.

“All these plans are from Enugu, my townspeople and age grades that are surprised that I can own some things, build some houses, buy a house in Lagos. They asked them to go and kill me.
