He alleged that she sold the asset without consulting the children or sharing proceeds from the sales with them.
In a new video with King Mitchy shared online on Friday, June 26, 2026, the social media influencer questioned Stella about the alleged sale of Ibu's properties.
“It hasn’t been up to two years since your husband passed away, yet you people have sold everything he owned, his houses and landed properties. Now you’re still asking people to donate money,” King Mitchy stated in the confrontation.
Responding, Stella claimed she did not act alone, stating that some of the late actor's sons were involved in the sales of his properties. According to Stella, the actor's land in Enugu was sold for N17 million for his burial.
"So many lies have been fabricated against me," she said in the video.
On claims that she was lazy, Ibu's wife disclosed that she was into the sales of jewelry on social media. She also shared plans to move to a more affordable house after receiving N7.5 million in donations from Nigerians hours after her and her children's appeal for help.
Stella further claimed the actor kept his previous marriages and first son away from her.
