After a video of Mr Ibu appealing for help with his hospital bills was leaked, controversial activist, VeryDarkMan, made a film in which he voiced his shame and indignation towards Nollywood as a whole.
The Nollywood legend, who celebrated his birthday with family yesterday, issued a video in which he appealed the public for aid with his condition.
This video seemed to have infuriated the activist, who instantly began criticizing Nollywood. According to him, Mr Ibu should not have to ask for assistance, and this indicates a lack of structure in the film industry.
Mr Ibu was regarded to as a legend by VeryDarkMan, who has a long list of fantastic films under his belt. He stated that most Nigerians do not hold these legends in high regard. He believes Nollywood should have advanced to the point that legends like him can be paid a pension.
He closed the video by requesting his app’s over 600,000 users to contribute at least a thousand Naira to enable Mr Ibu receive the surgery.
