Originally from Kano, Northern Nigeria, I’ve been working in film business for more than 20 years. I’ve lived and worked as director, producer and writer before joining the BBC Hausa Service. I founded the production company Tsumagiya Media Services and was a member of the British Council supported KULTAF Theater in Kano in the 80s and later founded Kano community Theater project and Tsumagiya. We are based in Abuja and Kano and develop content for the international market, servicing productions in Nigeria and West Africa
