It’s by God’s power not by any man. I don’t know what is going to happen when I get to 100 years but I know that I want to leave a history in this country. I want to leave a history in this country before I die. All Nigerians, anybody that sees me, I wish you good age. Ripe age. I wish you good luck for any business you’re doing. I wish you good friends, wonderful friends, that would be material to your person as you live. My name remains John Ikechukwu Okafor.

Persistence and true spirit of sportsmanship have kept me on. Aside that, I’m also sweet in bed, I am good and very proud of myself. Try me and you will be amazed. I deliver very well. I can drive women crazy. People keep asking the secret of my good looks, but the fact remains that I don’t take alcohol or sugary drinks. I don’t smoke. I also don’t take carbohydrates. I live on vegetables and smoothies. All these keep me going and looking very healthy.
