AMVCA Snub, A Conspiracy Against Me – Actor, Ibrahim Chatta Speaks

The well-known Nollywood actor, Ibrahim Chatta, has spoken about his AMVCA snub.

He claimed he believes there is a plot against him because he was not nominated for the annual Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards.

Fans of the actor have questioned why, given his talent as an actor, he was not nominated for the AMVCA awards despite his performances, particularly in the film “King of Thieves,” which received nominations in several categories.

Chatta, however, claimed that the fact that he had never received an invitation from the organizers disturbed him more than his nomination.

The Nollywood actor admitted that he frequently feels like his efforts are not noteworthy enough when speaking on a radio program, which he then published on his Instagram page.

He said, “My exclusion from the nomination list didn’t make me feel bad because no matter how hard you think you are working, your mates are also working, and the best has to be picked every year. But my problem is that they don’t invite me and that looks like a conspiracy against me.

“I understand that it’s not everyone that gets nominated into the categories, but at least they’re supposed to invite me, but they don’t. So, I do feel like – is it that my works are not worthy enough? Because I used to see my younger colleagues, including those that just joined Nollywood, all showing off in different outfits at the event.”

Chatta said he would not allow any award prize to affect his craft, adding that his target was to win an Oscar before departing from this world.

He said, “I will receive an Oscar before I leave this world. I don’t want any award to disturb my skills or my work. When you start thinking about not receiving an award, it makes you weary, and I don’t want to be. Oscar is my target”
