Speaking further, Chatta discussed how respect is not a matter of a person’s age but of their ‘doings’. According to the Nollywood star, an elder is a person who has achieved great exploits.
Chatta gave the example of Alexander the Great, who died at a young age but did great things that many other powerful men could not match.
The Nigerian actor also spoke of Davido being an elder despite being a young guy from a wealthy family. According to Ibrahim Chatta, even though the 30BG boss’ father is a billionaire, Davido is more rich and influential with his ‘doings’.
In his words:
“A young person who has things of elders, don’t count their age, they are not children. Alexander The Great started ruling the world at the age of 20 and he died at the age of 33. Everything he achieved, Julius Ceaser, Adolf Hiltler, nobody met up with his achievements but he died at 33, he had completed his lifetime. And you’re calling that kind of person a child? He’s not a child o, you’re only counting his age but he’s an elder. Wizkid is an elder. The day I sat down with Davido, I was just looking at all the people surrounding him, people who were ready to be killed before you could get to him. He’s an elder. Okay, Davido’s dad is a billionaire that has been doing big things in his family, their family is one of wealth, but doesn’t Davido shine differently among the others? Davido’s dad is rich but not like Davido. If Davido’s dad is passing by you might not even recognise him if he comes to Oyo. Davido can’t walk past in Akesan, people would tear him apart, stampede will happen.”
