King Mitchy appeals for support after visiting Mr Ibu’s family

Content creator King Mitchy has stirred an outpouring of sympathy after sharing details of a visit to the family of late Nollywood actor Mr Ibu.

According to Mitchy, she visited the actor’s family and discovered that some of his children were no longer attending school due to financial difficulties.

She stated that Mr Ibu’s 14-year-old daughter and his younger sons, aged 12 and 10, had reportedly dropped out of school.

Mitchy also claimed that the family disclosed they had been without electricity and access to potable water for about two weeks because of insufficient funds.

Expressing her concern, Mitchy described Mr Ibu as a legendary entertainer whose movies brought joy to millions of Nigerians during their childhood.

She noted that it was painful to see the family of such a beloved figure facing hardship and called for support to help the children return to school and address some of the family’s immediate needs.

Him and Aki and Paw Paw now that he is gone his family should not be suffering. We are donating for the children to go back to school and for their house rent to be paid….”
