Chatta's touching story about Ogogo

Ibrahim Chatta offered perhaps the most striking moment in the video, revisiting a memory from the funeral of actress Bimpe Adekola, also known as Ireti. He recalled that while they were gathered at a church mourning Ireti, a woman entered the building in tears and pleaded that whoever was taking the lives of people in the entertainment industry should leave Ogogo alone.

Chatta said this moment stuck with him because it showed the kind of deep affection ordinary people had for Ogogo long before his passing. He also noted that Ogogo was a man of integrity who never lied, adding that even in death, no one had come forward with anything negative to say about him.
