Fans of veteran comic actor, John Ikechukwu Okafor, popularly known as Mr. Ibu, have said series of get-well-soon prayers for the thespian who is battling with an illness.

The prayers and well wishes are in the wake of a video showing the moment the actor who seemingly has phobia for medicines begged his daughter to help him out with the drugs.

Though the comic actor’s illness appears like a minor one, netizens noted that his face has massively emaciated.
