Help has come the way of ailing Nollywood actor, John Okafor, popularly called IBU, who is currently down with an undisclosed ailment likely to cost him the use of his legs.
In response to an appeal by Mr Ibu from his sick bed, former Senate President, Dr Abubakar Bukola Saraki, has cleared all medical expenses of the ailing actor, through the ‘Abubakar Bukola Saraki Foundation’.
The Foundation reacted to the appeal on Friday to settle all medical bills for the ailing actor.
The foundation took to social media to say;
“The Abubakar Bukola Saraki Foundation is honoured to have extended support to Mr John Okafor, also known as Mr Ibu, a renowned comedic icon who has graced our screens and brought joy and laughter to countless homes over the past four decades.
“When we learned of his recent health challenges and the financial burdens associated with his medical treatment, we felt a deep sense of responsibility to assist in any way we could. We promptly paid off his entire medical expenses as of Wednesday.
“We encourage everyone who can come forward and assist in any capacity, whether through financial contributions, moral support, or prayers, as we wish him a swift and complete recovery”.
