Beloved Comedian Mr. Ibu’s Health Takes a Turn As He Undergoes Second Leg Amputation

Ibu Undergoes Second Leg Amputation.

News that veteran comic actor John Okafor, popularly known as Mr. Ibu, has undergone another surgery and is struggling to speak is causing deep concern among his fans and colleagues. This comes just a month after one of his legs was amputated in a desperate effort to save his life.

According to reports, Mr. Ibu underwent a second surgery on the same leg amputated last month, suggesting the initial procedure may not have been sufficient to control the underlying medical condition. The exact nature of this condition remains undisclosed, but the National President of the Actors Guild of Nigeria, Dr. Emeka Rollas, spoke candidly about Mr. Ibu’s deteriorating health.

“We are resigning to fate concerning the two actors,” Dr. Rollas said, referencing the difficult circumstances surrounding both Mr. Ibu and fellow ailing actor Amaechi Muonagor. He further confirmed that Mr. Ibu “hardly talks again” and has endured this additional amputation.
