| John Okafor aka Mr Ibu on the red carpet |
When I asked my good friend Teju Ibukunola of Femtej Kreations who the stars and co stars of this Mr Ibu film were, she simply said - It was just 'Mr Ibu,' I considered going to review a film that only had one 'star'. After a long consideration, I decided to go to see whether it was worth the journey.
And,
it was worth it. Soon, the night was filled with wanna-be celebrities,
the press, excited fans and the Nollywood show stoppers themselves. The Red Carpet glittered with glamourously dressed folk. I
was amazed to see thousands of fans. Nigerians and Sierra-Leoneans grace
the event to support John Okafor aka Mr Ibu - one of Nigeria’s most
talented
comic characters in the movie industry and producer, Collins
Archie-Pearce who also wrote the script for the new
film "IBU IN SIERRA LEONE".
Also present at the premier were important dignitaries from Sierra-Leone such as:
The former President of Sierra-Leone -
Ernest Bai Koroma
The Sierra-Leone High Commissioner - Peter West
Actor - Fatima Jabbe
The Deputy Commissioner of Internal Affairs - MR SHEKA TARAWALIE,
Nigerian Film Producer - Eko Olivia
John Okafor became known as 'Mr Ibu' after he appeared in a comedy film in 1978. He has also featured in the film ‘Vuga’, with Gentle Jack and Regina Askia, in ‘Uncle Wayward’ and in ‘Jealousy'.
The comedian once said that he supports Chelsea, the blues. He said he loves Chelsea to the extent that he named his daughter Chelsea.
