Shehu Sani, a former federal lawmaker, has promised to do all he can to help John Okafor, the ailing Nollywood actor.

The veteran comic actor took to social media on Wednesday to seek public assistance as he battles an ailment that may cost him his leg.

The actor said he has been down for many weeks and has been on admission in an undisclosed hospital.

The video he shared on Instagram has generated wide range of reactions from sympathisers.

Sani, who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District in the 8th National Assembly, described Mr Okafor as his favourite actor.

“Mr Ibu is my favorite artist and comedian. He lights up and entertains the homes of millions of Nigerians.

“We shall not let him down for reasons we can all collectively solve. We shall do the needful and also bring the attention of the big names to do the needful,” he said.
