Popular veteran actor and comedian, John Okafor also known as Mr Ibu marked his birthday yesterday, October 17, 2021.

To celebrate his 61st birthday, the comic star revealed the legacy he wants to leave behind.

Mr Ibu, in a video he posted on his verified Instagram page, stated that his mother died at 90, but he hopes to live up to 100 years.
According to the Nollywood star, he wants to leave a history in Nigeria before he dies.

He said; “My name is John Ikechukwu Okafor. It is another God sent day for me. I have completed 61 years; Jesus! I cannot believe this, are you serious. My mother died at 90 years and I said I am going to go 100 years. It is by God’s power not by any man. I do not know what is going to happen when I get to 100 years but I know that I want to leave a history in this country.

“I want to leave a history in this country before I die. All Nigerians, anybody that sees me, I wish you good age, ripe age. I wish you good luck with any business that you are doing. I wish you, good friends and wonderful friends. That would be materials to your person. My name remains who I am; John Ikechukwu Okafor.”
