Nollywood actor Ibrahim Chatta has responded to reactions surrounding his recent statement about losing several horses, following widespread discussions on social media.
The actor had earlier gone viral after revealing in a video that he had lost 48 horses over time, prompting many online users to question how he could afford to own so many horses.
Addressing the speculation, Chatta clarified that the figure has now risen to 49, explaining that another horse died after the earlier video was recorded.
He added that despite the overall number, only two horses have died this year, describing it as the lowest number of losses he has recorded in recent years.
According to the actor, he usually ignores public criticism and chooses not to respond to every comment made about him. However, after seeing videos and negative reactions circulating online, he decided to set the record straight.
“I have cultivated the habit of not addressing everything people say about me. I watched like two videos that people reposted, bashing me. Let me say it directly: I have lost 49 horses and not 48. Because after that 48, another one died. This year we have lost two horses, and this is the lowest,” he said.
His clarification comes amid ongoing conversations about his passion for horses, which has long been associated with his lifestyle and cultural interests.
