Ibou is the captain of the Zuma festival soccer match’s white team. He prioritizes brawn and skill over teamwork and having a good time, so although his team wins, he and his teammates aren’t happy about their win and don’t earn much chittim. He also cruelly taunts Sunny for being female and albino, and he joins Yao in feuding with Chichi and Sasha.
