But the actor also reveals that despite his commitment to making people to laugh, he has had cause to be unhappy, even bitter, on some occasions. Reflecting on his career, Okafor says he has been publicly embarrassed by fans at different times and in several places. “I quickly forgive them because I was the one that looked for trouble in the first place. On one occasion, somebody came to me and said, ‘ Ibu, because of what your jokes have done to me and my family, I promised God that anywhere I meet you, I would slap your face .’ I told him them to go ahead.

It is doubtful that, given a choice, he would have given up acting for any other career. G...
