The family drama between ailing actor, John Okafor better known as Mr Ibu’s wife, Stella Maris and his adopted daughter, Jasmine has taken another twist.
Kemi Filani reported days back that Jasmine and Stella were at war over the donation the ailing actor has been receiving.
According to Gistlover, his wife wants to take over the donation money to fund her lavish lifestyle as she is always talking about buying an iPhone 15 and new cars.
The blog also claimed that Mr Ibu’s wife had used her account to get N1 million from the donation.
Reacting to it, Stella Maris alleged that Jasmine was trying to make her an outsider in her marriage. Describing her statement as malicious, she vowed to address Jasmine’s excessive interference in her family affairs and other related matters.
Refuting her claims, Mr Ibu’s son, Daniel revealed that he is the one in charge of the actor’s account. According to him, he is the signatory to the account and his next of kin.
He stated that there is no truth in Stella Maris’ allegations as Jasmine doesn’t have access to his account.
“My name is Daniel Okafor; I am John Okafor’s second son.
“There is no truth in what Stella Maris has been sharing online. Jasmine does not have access to that account; I have access to it. I am the signatory to the account and my father’s next of kin.”
“She is my stepmother. My mother is not around at the moment”.
This drama is coming less than a year after they made headlines for publicly clashing over his property.
His wife, Stella had cried out for help over Jasmine’s ploy to dupe her husband, who she claimed was suffering from dementia.
She went on to narrate her ordeal in the hands of Jasmine. However, they were able to settle their marital issue, thanks to the intervention of the police and to avoid future altercations, Jasmine was made his manager and was ordered to take directives and instructions from Stella.
Recall that John Okafor, has been hospitalized for weeks now and had spent his 66th birthday in the hospital and is currently battling for life.
The Nollywood icon has undergone 7 successful surgeries and had one of his legs amputated.
