Charles Inojie, a veteran Nigerian comic actor, has stated that his colleague, John “Mr Ibu” Okafor, who recently passed away, is an irreplaceable asset to the film industry.
Mr Ibu’s death was announced on Saturday night, March 2nd, and the nation and entertainment industry were plunged into mourning.
The Nollywood celebrity stated that Mr Ibu’s death is an irreparable loss that would be felt by all. He claimed that simply casting him was enough to turn a movie into a blockbuster.
Inojie mentioned this in a recent interview with Channels TV, stating that he is one of the few actors who can convey a message through body language and gestures that are comprehended without the use of words.
According to him, the late entertainer’s exceptional talent and attributes are not easily acquired in the film industry.
Inojie said; “There’s sometimes you lose a person in an industry and you say, well, so or so person would replace him. But Mr Ibu is irreplaceable. Mr Ibu spears with every part of his body.
“He is probably one of the few people in Africa that would sit without saying anything would communicate a million messages with his facial expressions, body language and gestures without verbalizing just one word of dramatic dialogue. That doesn’t come cheap. We are going to miss that. You have John, you have a blockbuster.”
