Rahama Sadau was banned from the Hausa film industry Kannywood, by the Motion Picture Practitioners Association of Nigeria (MOPPAN) on Sunday, 2 October 2016.
Her ‘sin’ was an “offensive hug” in her appearance in an Hausa music video alongside a Jos based popular pop star ClassiQ.
Rahama Sadau claimed not to know any other person who had been banned in Kannywood, except herself.
MOPPAN argued that the “hugging and cuddling” in the video was in violation of the code of ethics known to all Hausa movie practitioners.
As soon as the news of her ban went viral on the internet many Nollywood producers expressed their willingness to feature the embattled actress.
However, on 8 October 2016, she was reported to be featuring in a movie series on EbonyLife TV and on 15 October 2016, she confirmed on her Twitter account that she had been invited to Hollywood by Akon and Jeta Amata.
