Comedic actor, John Okafor popularly known as Mr Ibu has said he almost died of hunger due to COVID-19, the life-threatening pandemic ravaging the world.
Speaking with The Nation, the Nollywood star revealed that if not for the help of good samaritans, he would have been dead by now.
He, however, said he doesn’t believe the virus is in Nigeria, neither does he care about it.
While maintaining that COVID-19 is a scam in the country, Mr Ibu advised everyone to stop exaggerating on the rising cases of the infectious disease, which to him, is not in existence.
His words; “Nigeria, we are not supposed to be involved in this COVID-19, I see no reason why we should be involved. Only Nigerians in diaspora will have to partake in this devilish program.
“We at home are oblivious, we are not supposed to be involved in any ceremony in trying to pretend or in trying to avoid. My brother, COVID-19, or 20 is not here, I don’t care.
“Why would China give us sickness and America embellish the technicality and then sell it to the world and people now begin to die when they know it’s killing. Thank God we have hot weather, the thing sef dey fear us.”
“I no dey fear anything I dey wear cloth waka on my own. Nothing dey here, nobody don die for this whole area, if you go another area nobody don die, go to stadium nobody don die. Let’s be sorry for ourselves.
“I’m telling everybody not just the government this, say only what you know do not exaggerate it. Na we dey take our mouth call sickness by im own, sickness dey pass on its own but na we dey call am for Nigeria. You won’t see COVID-19 because it’s not here.”
