Popular Yoruba actor Ibrahim Chatta has revealed one of the reasons behind his inability to pay his employees’ salaries for the past four months.
In a video shared on his official Instagram page, @Ibrahimchatta_lordthespis, the actor explained that he has 42 staff members under his employment but has struggled to pay their wages for four months. He emphasized the need for the Nigerian government to harness the country’s natural resources effectively to improve the economy and benefit everyone.
In his statement, he said, “I have 42 staff working for me, but I’m sad that I haven’t paid their salaries for 4 months now. I know some people would abuse me, but I’m not saying this because I want people to pay the salary of my staff for me, I’m just saying it so that people will know that things aren’t easy everywhere right now. Most of the jobs I do for people in the Yoruba movie industry are free, and I charge little money from some of my friends too.”
