Popular Nollywood comic actor, John Okafor popularly known by his stage name Mr Ibu, has come under heavy attack from his fans after describing former Vice President Atiku Abubakar as “God sent to humanity”.
The veteran actor shared a picture of himself and Atiku shaking hands at an undisclosed public location on his Instagram account with the caption: “Atiku Abubakar is a God sent to humanity. He keeps saving souls from pains”.
Mr Ibu who has huge followers on IG might have written that caption jokingly or out of excitement to have coincidentally bumped into Atiku in a public place like that.

Mr Ibu’s fans which are mostly of Igbo extraction blasted the ace comedian, calling him names and accusing him of having intention to collect some cash from the politician towards his 2019 presidential ambition.

sylvestercollins: Mr ibu… The respect I have for you is beginning to vanish gradually…. shame on you, this how some of we igbos gonna end up as slaves to Hausa and Yoruba people for eternity because of money but I’m assuring you that I will never be part of it… First of all this how it all started back in 2011 when reverend father mbaka deceived some gullible igbos that buhari is a God sent… Use your tongue and count your teeth. Don’t make me believe that you have received your own share of the national cake to campaign for this selfish and wicked politician that called himself atiku, what positive impact has he injected to Nigeria when he was vice president that made you tagged him a “God sent “? Hmmm @realmribu sorry to say this but you’re a huge disgrace to igbohood… So you no see another sincere Hausa politician you go campaign for apart from this hoodlum that called himself atiku? Ibu Ndo!
