The family of the late Nigerian comedian and actor John Okafor, well known as Mr Ibu, is at the centre of public controversy over his estate.

He alleged that she sold the asset without consulting the children or sharing proceeds from the sales with them.
According to Somtochukwu, Stella's character was becoming 'a slap to him and the rest of his father's children.
“My father left a lot of properties for his children, but his wife chose to take everything for herself and her children. My father's house in Lagos she sold it for 60 million, and she didn’t reach out to any of his children," Somtochukwu said in part.
He alleged that Ibu's wife kept the money, including donations made by Nigerians during Mr Ibu's health challenge, for herself and her children.
Somtochukwu claimed Stell cut her off, despite his late father telling her to take care of him.
The video comes as a reaction to a viral clip of Stella Okafor and her children appealing to the public for financial help with school fees and living expenses.

"So as rich as this man late Mr ibu ,he couldn't even write a will and share his properties to his children, instead he trusted a step mother over his first children. Very foolish decision I must say. Now that he is no more now,the children are now suffering. Men will say polygamy is enjoyment wait till you die before you will see the true colour of your so called step mother."
