Jasmine Okafor, the adopted daughter of the late Nollywood actor Mr. Ibu, has courageously recounted her harrowing experience of being scammed on the popular social media platform TikTok.

The ordeal began in December 2021 during an engaging live game session on TikTok, where a viewer known as Jay Love initially appeared to be charming and generous.

According to the investigation, Jay Love skillfully manipulated Jasmine into believing they had a genuine romantic bond, which ultimately led her to send him significant amounts of money.

As the investigation unfolded, Jasmine Okafor discovered that Jay Love had not only targeted her but had scammed at least 14 other women as well, some of whom were married.

He had lured them in with promises of love, marriage, and even travel documents, only to strip them of their money once he gained their trust.

This story was featured in a true-crime special titled “The TikTok Scammer,” produced by renowned journalist Chude Jideonwo, highlighting the alarming prevalence of online scams.

In a further twist to this troubling narrative, Jasmine and Mr. Ibu’s biological son, Daniel, were arrested in January 2024 for allegedly hacking into Mr. Ibu’s phone and misappropriating $60,700 from him.

This incident added to the family鈥檚 challenges after Mr. Ibu鈥檚 passing in March 2024. Following his death, Jasmine took the controversial step of renaming her late father’s TikTok account, which boasted over a million followers, to her name.

In a move that raised eyebrows, she deleted all videos that did not feature her, prompting questions about her intentions.

In the wake of Mr. Ibu’s death, the internet was engulfed in grief as fans and colleagues paid tribute to the legendary actor.

However, the situation took a turn when popular blogger Tosin Silverdam publicly accused Jasmine of inappropriately taking control of the late actor’s TikTok account.

Tosin raised concerns about the timing of Jasmine Okafor鈥檚 actions, suggesting that she might have had prior knowledge of Mr. Ibu’s death.

He also compared Jasmine’s personal TikTok account, which has amassed over a million followers, to the late actor’s page, casting doubt on her motives for dismantling the content and popularity that had long been associated with Mr. Ibu.
