Help Mr Ibu's children with scholarship, ex-manager urges Enugu govt

Mr Dominic Nwuzor, ex-manager of late Nollywood comic actor John Okafor, popularly known as ‘Mr Ibu,’ has appealed to the Enugu State government to provide scholarships for the late actor’s children. He made the appeal in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Monday in Abuja. Nwuzor, who is the Chief Executive Officer of Don Singles International, managed the late artiste for more than two decades before his passing in March 2024. He urged the state government to consider the children of the late actor, who hailed from Nkanu West, in its effort to bolster education through targeted scholarships across the state. According to him, such an initiative would ensure the children receive the education necessary for self-reliance in the absence of the comic genius. “We have appealed for scholarship opportunities for the children, and will continue to do so, so that something can be done. “His Excellency, Governor Peter Mbah, is a leader with a large heart and does not take lightly the education of the people, especially the vulnerable ones.
