Rahama Sadau speaks on transitioning from Kannywood to Nollywood
Remember Rahama Sadau?
The Northern actress who was kicked out of Nigeria’s Northern movie industry, Kannywood for an action that was described as “immoral” after she hugged male artiste, Classiq in a music video.
Well, that controversy that gained worldwide attention in 2016 has not stopped opening doors for Sadau.
In an interview with Guardian Life magazine, she said of the ban, “Well, it’s a stepping stone, I am grateful because it has opened a lot of doors because a lot of people didn’t know me until the ban happened. It’s not something good but I think it was just meant to be.”
Although Sadau said she hasn’t faced any challenges in the industry as a Muslim woman, she had to turn down a script that demanded her playing the role of a lesbian. She said, “I just felt a side of Rahama that couldn’t do it”.
In the next five years, Sadau hopes to be like Angelina Jolie or her role model, Priyanka Chopra who she says has been in a situation similar to hers.
