“A whole legendary John Okafor? Didn’t he leave properties for them? They shouldn’t even be suffering. 😭”
Another commenter said:
“This woman (the wife) doesn’t know how to manage money. Isn’t she the same woman who had issues over money with the lady who claimed to be Mr Ibu’s daughter while he was in the hospital? What happened to all the millions Nigerians raised for her husband back then?”
