He can't be 6'2 ohhhhhhh linda .. maybe u meant 5'2 .. some gals may classify him as sexy cos of his muscular physique but he don't look sexy to me .. a tall "INTELLIGENT" man is sexier than sexy .. he is so not .. try again later :)

Congrat Ibukun for promoting Nigerians in diaspora as black model of the year in the UK. I admire your work.

Good day,

Personally, I was upset with those comments above. I randomly google search Ibukun's name and came across this.

Firstly, I'm james Ross the director of the shoot Ibukun took some month's back for a spanish magazine and that exertly was the concept they requested for. So I suggest you blame the magazine who suggested the concept.

I see no credible reason why you all should insult the model.

I'm not sure if Ibukun got the time to read this but incase you are reading this, worry not because we are proud of you.

Your's truely,

James Ross.

hmm , i'm @ that campus but never seen or heard of him

I agree with you Ross. :D.

Last anon, I have read about him in papers. Maybe he is one of those celeb who doesnt come out becos i live in nottingham too and hv seen him once. lol

Ibukun should fire the director that told him to pose like that.

Mehn, why they make him look so gay, like he's modeling for a gay website or smth.

NG said...

I've met him, he is a quiet type of guy - from what I saw.

First of all male models are something most women aren't that bothered about, BUT Ibukun deserves it. I'm a friend of his, and saw him before and after the 'fame' he hasn't changed he's still a very lovely guy. I understand people will always hate, I don't see anything wrong with disclosing your opinion. People do that ALL the time by all sorts of people.

What I want us to remember is that he's still a young lad, and he's still very focusedo on his education, so no need to tear him down.
