The Nigeria Police Force has apprehended the son and adopted daughter of popular actor Mr. John Okafor, also known as Mr. Ibu, over allegations of stealing N55 million in donations. The arrests were made following a petition from Diamond Waves Law on behalf of Mr. Ibu’s wife, Stella Okafor. The police revealed that the suspects, identified as Onyeabuchi Okafor and Jasmine Okekeagwu, conspired to defraud their father by hacking into his phone and transferring funds from his public fundraising account. The investigation uncovered text messages detailing their plans, as well as evidence of a sham marriage and attempts to flee the country. The police have retrieved N50 million of the stolen funds and charged the duo with conspiracy and stealing. The case has been forwarded to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions for further legal advice. The incident has sparked a family feud, with allegations that the adopted daughter hijacked the donated funds. Mr. Ibu’s wife has expressed the importance of her husband’s health and promised to address the interference in due time. The case is scheduled to be heard on March 11, 2024.
