Veteran Nigerian actor, John Okafor better known as Mr Ibu, has said that he became cautious and doubtful of people’s intentions after being poisoned.

The comic star had narrated on several occasions how he was poisoned in the past by persons close to him.

In an interview, he said he is now mindful of new faces around him, considering that it was done by someone he helped.

The actor said; “These days, I am usually skeptical because I later found out that it was somebody I had helped in the past (who poisoned me).”

He futher revealed that he is still undergoing treatment in Abuja because there is still some remnants of the poison in his system

“If not for God, the result would have been bad. As I speak with you now, I am still being treated somewhere in Guzape, Abuja,” he added.

Speaking further, the movie star urged government to do more to in terms of ensuring the safety and secutity of filmmakers.

He said, “I expect the Federal Government to act on this. Whether we like it or not, we (actors) are serving the government. The movies we make are for the benefit of the general public. If the government wants to better protect us, they can do it.”
