Nollywood actor Ibrahim Chatta recently expressed his disappointment regarding his exclusion from the annual Africa Magic Viewers’ Choice Awards (AMVCA). Speculating a conspiracy against him, he questioned why he was not nominated despite his talent and notable performances, such as in the film “King of Thieves,” which received nominations in various categories. Chatta further revealed that the absence of an invitation from the organizers troubled him more than the lack of a nomination. Opening up about his insecurities, he candidly shared his feelings of inadequacy during a radio program, later posting the conversation on his Instagram page.
The Nollywood actor openly acknowledged on a radio program, and later shared on his Instagram page, that he often experiences a sense of inadequacy regarding the significance of his endeavors.
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”
