Emeka Rollas, National President, Actors Guild of Nigeria (AGN), has disclosed that  Nollywood actor, John Okafor (Mr Ibu), died of cardiac arrest.

He revealed this on his instagram page on Saturday.

Mr. Ibu was 62.

Rollas said: ” Sad Day for Actors Guild of Nigeria. Kate Henshaw lost her mother earlier today and Mr Ibu suffered cardiac arrest according to his manager of 24 years, Mr Don Single Nwuzor.

“I announce with deep sense of grief that Mr Ibu didn’t make it. May his soul rest in peace.”
