- Urges other filmmakers to boycott actress
The Motion Picture Practitioners Association of Nigeria, (MOPPAN), has again dismissed the controversial Kannywood actress, Rahama Sadau, after sharing racy pictures on social media, causing blasphemous comments on Prophet Muhammad, (PBUH).
Issuing a statement signed yesterday, the association’s National PRO, Al-Amin Ciroma, described the act as condemnable and unacceptable.
Recall that the actress has been trending on various social media platforms, after posting what could be described as racy pictures of her on her page. At Twitter, ‘#Assistant Allah’ has been trending in which adherents of Islam and Christianity have been insulting each other over the pictures.
The association recalled that in October, 2016, it had dismissed the embattled actress from the industry, after violating the association’s rules and regulations “for immoral behaviours leading to ‘on-screen hug with a certain hip-hop star, Classic”.
The umbrella body of northern filmmakers, popularly known as Kannywood, therefore, re-iterated its initial stand on the actress, calling all other Kannywood guilds and associations to ensure compliance.
The association called on all professional bodies in Kannywood, the Hausa communities and The Diaspora, to note that it has dissociated itself from Rahma Sadau’s insolence.
