'My ex-wife killed my son; wants me dead' - John Okafor

In January 2011, popular Nollywood actor John Okafor's wife and 1 year old son, Mandela Okafor (both pictured above), were kidnapped and held in captivity for 10 days. Then exactly one year later, 2 year old Mandela died in mysterious circumstances. John Okafor later revealed in an interview that his son died from food poisoning.

In an interview with Entertainment Express yesterday, Mr Okafor accused his ex-wife of poisoning Mandela and also trying to kill him. What he said below:
"My ex-wife and her cohorts planned and kidnapped my wife and child; they were later released after 10 days. I paid the ransom and they came home twelve hours later. That child died a year later through poison. The facts later came out but I don't want to act on it now. She has made several attempts on my life and that of my immediate family. You will be surprised the day you hear what really happened, but I don't want to go into details now'

  12. @omoyibo, he's saying his ex wife killed his son from another marriage. I use to blame my ex wife for all my problems, when I'm broke I will blame her, if I fall I blame her, if a new relationship don't work, I claim she and her mother are using jazz to disturb me. Now my business, life everything is do great, so why is she not attacking me know? She see me flossing. Distiny is to blame sometimes not our enemy.

    Men be careful some women work and slave in this life in their youth and when you make it, you leave them in the lurch.
    I am not supporting any ex wife nor do we know if these allegations are true but this is a lesson for everyone. May the soul of the young boy rest in peace. Amen

  22. May his gentle soul rest in peace. Men who divorce and remarry, pls leave the kids with their mother. No one can take care of children like their biological mother, except she is no more. A new wife can almost never do the job!

  25. @ abi Bakare. What do you mean? Stop casting aspersions about Nigeria as if weird things only happen here. Stop being narrow minded and look at the bigger picture of the world.
    Meanwhile, Mr. Ibu may the protection of God Almighty be with you.

  26. I wonder why am not taking this serious.. Maybe coz I have seen him in too many comedies

  27. We don't have a best Police Force. I have also suspected that some families of kidnapped people were part and parcel of the deal.

    Sometimes people marry for a package deal. A man once died this way simply because he was a popular entertainer. The houseboy said he saw his wife put juju in his food.

    As soon as he died, the woman kept on bringing a big bus to pack his properties away until members of the public stopped her.

  28. Mr ibu,pls be sure of wat u re saying. This is a very strong allegations to make against somebody if u dont have facts. May ur innocent son's soul rest in peace,Amen.

  33. oh now she has become a killer and a kidnapper hmmm well am not going to take sides am just going to say my piece.does Mr Okafor remember his boom-mike carrying and camera man days when he was an obscure nobody and that same woman stood by him suffered it all with him,and then by a stroke of luck,he became the Mr Ibu we all know now and then sweet sixteen comes along does he know that the tears of a cheated woman on her naked body can do more than ten thousand assasins does he know?am not saying she did or did not do it but conscience they say is an open wound.

  34. I stand corrected on my earlier comment, was still suffering a bit from Friday chill over when I first read the article, just re-read the article again. But come o, why are Nigerians so quick to blame everything on their enemies? Can shit just be taken for face value or must we always blame enemies? Those are some strong allegations that the ibu guy is leveling on his ex and if his got the proof like he claims why not pursue her under the law? I'm just saying....

  44. Please Mr. Ibu should retract his statement men always like to blame an exwife for every hurtful that happens in their lives...and I hope this his new wife is not celebrity motivated....cause he behaviour in movies is too disgusting to attract such a fine girl without money being involved

  45. If his claims are factual, and not the product of biased judgment, he should involve the police soon enough.
