John Okafor (often called "Mr.Ibu", after his most popular role) is a Nollywood actor and comedian. Okafor is considered to be one of Nigeria’s most talented comic characters. His humorous acting is often characterised by stupidity, hilarious imbecility and a sharp disconnection from reality.

He was born on 17 October 1961 and is married with children. He has acted in more than 70 movies including Mr.Ibu (2004), Mr.Ibu in London (2004), Police Recruit (2003), 9 Wives (2005), Ibu in Prison (2006) and Keziah (2007).

Okafor has remained a role model to many Nigerian comedians.
