On October 18, 2023, the family of veteran actor John ‘Mr Ibu’ Okafor released a video of a bedridden Mr Ibu who was soliciting help to take care of his medical bills and ensure that his leg was not amputated due to an undisclosed ailment.
A few weeks later, his family has confirmed that he had to have one of his legs amputated to stay healthy.
They revealed this via a statement on Monday, October 6, 2023, where they disclosed that after seven successful surgeries, he had to go through with the process.
“As of 1 pm, noon today, Daddy has gone through seven successful surgeries, but to keep him alive and increase his chances of recovery one of his legs had to be amputated. This development has been hard on us all, but we’ve had to accept it as Daddy’s new reality to keep him alive,” they disclosed.
They’ve also used this avenue to appreciate everyone who donated to settle the medical fees of the veteran actor currently recovering.
