Nollywood actress Biola Bayo has penned a heartfelt note to her colleague, Ibrahim Chatta.
In a lengthy post on her Instagram page, she revealed that getting guests on the show is one of the most difficult experiences she has had, and the constant rejection from people, even her buddies, for no reason, left her hurt. However, she doesn’t hold any grudge or anger with anyone and she concentrates on getting better daily.
She recounted how she was supposed to shoot 4 episodes on Monday, but 2 people canceled on her a day before the shoot, and her spirit told her to reach out to Ibrahim. According to her, she felt skeptical of it as she noted how Ibrahim is always busy and permanently lives in Oyo State. She, however, hearkened to the voice, and to her surprise, Ibrahim accepted and sang her praises as he noted how she was a good person, which left her in tears.
Calling him one in a million, she celebrated the grace of God upon his life and urged her fans to pray for him.
“Getting guests on the show has to be one of the most difficult experiences I’ve had, the constant rejection from people, even your buddies will say “NO” for different reasons.
Rejection can be very hurtful, but I have no anger or offense against anyone; instead, I concentrate on getting better daily till I become a force to be reckoned with. Hopefully when I get to the top someday by God’s grace “I will “
I would be shooting 4 episodes on Monday and 2 people canceled on me on Sunday, I had no hope of getting anyone within such short notice, and I was very unhappy considering the amount of money I would be losing if I didn’t shoot on Monday and of course, someone’s life was on line @abdul____orazaq I had to shoot.
On Sunday evening, I thought of whom to call for a long time till I heard in my spirit (call Ibrahim) that sounded impossible, knowing how busy he is and considering the fact that he doesn’t live in Lagos (from Oyo? How?) I took the bold step and called. Fortunately, he picked me, and he was very happy to hear from me after a long time.
He asked about the show, and I told him some of the challenges I’ve been facing was getting people to come. Then he said, “Why would anyone say no to you? You’re a good person. I was close to tears, and then he said, “You know what? I’ll come tomorrow; I’ll cancel some appointments for you. I don’t even have what to wear in Lagos, but I’ll get something to wear and make sure to be there before I leave Lagos tomorrow.
It sounded too good to be true; I could not believe my ears, but yeah. Here we are today.
He even asked people to help me on the show without discussing that with me.
Ajadi! You’re one in a million, I celebrate the grace of God upon your life.
I am thankful for this honor; I will never forget it in a hurry. Thank you for doing this with me.
I pray you will never die untimely, you will never weep over everything giving you joy.
