Jasmine: I didn’t cut ties with Mr Ibu’s family

Jasmine Okekeagwu, the alleged adopted daughter of late actor, John Okafor, popularly known as Mr Ibu, has said that the drama that ensued between her and the family during the actor’s last days and after his demise, she has not cut ties with the family.

Speaking in an interview with Saturday Beats, she said, “I won’t say I cut ties with them totally. I am just focused on myself, and saving myself from a lot of trouble.”

 

She also stated that she considered her dealings with the family as a form of charity.

 

“It is what I do. Even the help I rendered to them (Ibu family) is more like charity, because when someone that is not related to one stands in for years to make sure that all is good, it is charity. But, they did not understand my intention from the beginning, because they only thought of what I could offer and what they could get from me. Now, I feel it is better to help people that don’t have anything to offer. That is where the real blessing is,” she said.

 

She also stated that she had been involved in charity works for a long time. She said, “I have been doing this for a long time, even when I was with daddy (Mr Ibu). Since 2020, I have been doing personal charity. While growing up, I saw my mother helping people, and it was from there that my love for humanity grew.”

 

Jasmine added that after Mr Ibu’s death, intensified her philanthropic acts, and that brought her happiness. She added, “I realised that it (helping others) is the only thing that makes me happy. I have found peace and I feel fulfilled. I feel like I’m living my purpose right now.”

She also stated that because of the time she spends on charitable projects, she has not had time to appear in movies like before.
