- The revered actor confronted the haunting allegations of assault that had scarred his name and shaken the foundations of his past.
- As he laid bare his truth, Ibrahim also reiterated his unwavering stance on his current dynamic with Olayinka Solomon—a firm declaration that hinted at lessons learned, boundaries redefined, and a man determined to rise above the ashes of his past.
Top-tier actor and industry powerhouse, Ibrahim Chatta, has finally broken his silence, opening up with unfiltered honesty about the swirling accusations that have haunted his career for years.
In an emotionally charged and deeply revealing appearance on Biola Adebayo’s Talk-to-B show, the celebrated movie star addressed claims that his ex-wife, colleague, and mother of his first son, Malik—Olayinka Solomon—left their marriage due to domestic violence.
For the first time in years, Chatta confronted the allegations head-on, peeled back the layers of pain, misunderstanding, and societal judgment that have trailed him like a relentless shadow.
Reflecting on the downfall of their marriage, Chatta described how a major fallout between himself and Olayinka led to her departure. He recalled how her family came to retrieve her belongings that marked the definitive end of their union.
According to him, as the marriage dissolved, whispers turned to shouts, and the public narrative took on a life of its own. Accusations of domestic violence began to circulate, with fingers pointed squarely at him as the villain of the story.
These allegations, he revealed, were rooted in a candid confession he made years ago in a separate interview, where he admitted to hitting a woman who had first slapped him.
Ibrahim said that moment of honesty, meant to convey a past lesson learned, was twisted and weaponized, became a cornerstone of the narrative that painted him as an abuser in his failed marriage.
The actor, now older and more reflective, confessed that he once dismissed the need to clear his name, opting instead for silence as the world speculated. But stated that with age comes a deeper understanding of legacy and truth.
He revealed that he and Olayinka Solomon have moved beyond the pain, now share a strong friendship and a healthy co-parenting relationship.
