The death of Nollywood star actor, John Okafor, popularly known as Mr Ibu came as a shock to so many people including the industry players.
Be that as it may, veteran Nollywood actor, Charles Inojie has bared his mind on the deceased actor which he described the death as an irreparable loss to the Nigerian movie industry.
Inojie speaking in an interview recently, said; “There’s sometimes you lose a person in an industry and you say, well, so or so person would replace him. But Mr Ibu is irreplaceable. Mr Ibu spears with every part of his body.”
“He is probably one of the few people in Africa that would sit without saying anything would communicate a million messages with his facial expressions, body language and gestures without verbalising just one word of dramatic dialogue. That doesn’t come cheap. We are going to miss that.”
“You have John Okafor, you have a blockbuster.”
For those who don’t know, Mr Ibu died of cardiac arrest on Saturday March 2nd, 2024. He died at the age of 62.
