Adeyemi Badirat Olaitan, the estranged wife of the Alaafin of Oyo, has revealed that she avoids eating food at celebrations for fear of being poisoned.
The entrepreneur was responding to allegations that Nollywood comedy actor John Okafor, commonly known as Mr Ibu, was poisoned at an Abuja entertainment event.
Remember that Mr Ibu, a well-known Nollywood actor, recently revealed that he was poisoned and is now in the hospital.
The actor told Saturday Beats that he was poisoned at an entertainment event in Abuja, not in the countryside. He also indicated that he is recovering.
Mr Ibu said;
“I just got poisoned again. It seems my enemies are using me to rehearse (their powers). This time, I wasn’t poisoned in the village. I was poisoned in Abuja last week at an entertainment event. I really cannot explain how I was poisoned because it was a gathering of people, though it was not a big event.
“I am recuperating, although I have neither worked out nor driven since I got ill. However, I intend to take a walk this (Friday) evening, because I am hopeful that I would get better. I am eating well now, and I’m prepared to go back on set any moment from now.”
The actor also lambasted those who are taking money in his name without his knowledge and approval. Mr Ibu said;
“Some people have sold me. They have not heard from me and all they want to do is ‘sell me’. But, their plans won’t work because God has raised me up. I am not begging anybody for money. My condition is not as critical as some people are making it seem. Anybody who has made it a point of duty to talk about my sickness and take advantage of it should stop. I am here (hospital) with my wife. I am not saying all my friends that are supposed to visit me and bring me money cannot do that. But, I have never asked anyone to beg people for money on my behalf. They should stop. If I want to die, I would let them know, since they seem to be so interested.”
