Nigerian movie actor Sanusi Izihaq aka Apa has revealed how film star, Ibrahim Chatta, had helped him remain in Nollywood.
Apa, who used to be a Continuity Manager before becoming an actor, made the disclosure while speaking about some challenges he faced in the movie industry with actress Biola Bayo on Talk to B podcast.
“Big shout out to Ibrahim Chatta, I would have left Nollywood if not for him. I remember when a director who had never met me before but only heard about me vowed to deal with me. This is someone I never worked with, but I was eager to.
“However things got a bit tense and I despised a toxic working environment, so I become emotional and I started crying.
“Ibrahim Chatta has met me crying two to three occasions, and asked what happened. I told him that I would leave the industry but he always advised and encouraged me instead.
“I have left film making like 3 different occasions but he called me back to work on his project to ensure I don’t leave,” he said.
