Nollywood actor Ibrahim Chatta has addressed the controversy surrounding his recent statement about losing 48 horses.

In a viral video, he had explained how he lost the animals and described how fickle they can be, which led many to question how he could afford to own that many horses.

Speaking out, Ibrahim clarified that the actual number is 49, as another horse died after his initial statement. He noted that losing two horses this year is the lowest number he has recorded.

The actor added that while he usually ignores negative comments, he felt compelled to speak out after watching several videos of people bashing him.

He said:
"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."
