Shortly after EbonyLife TV’s editor Mo Abudu announced that she has casted the actress in a new series, Sons of Caliphate, Rahama has been invited by American singer Akon and Award-winning Nigerian producer Jeta Amata to a set in Hollywood.

The actress whose joys knew no bound took to twitter yesterday to share the good news. “Wow..I feel so honoured, truly humbled.” She said

Miss Sadau was expelled from the Hausa film industry earlier this month by the Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria after featuring in a romantic musical video because of her “immoral” behaviour.  Rahama Sadau caused offence by “hugging and cuddling” pop star Classiq in a video, it added.

They regard it as taboo for men and women to hold hands or kiss in public.

The Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (MOPPAN), who placed the ban on the actress, sighted ‘immorality’ as the reason for her expulsion in a video with Classiq, in a song entitled I Love You.

Kannywood, has been under fire from conservative Muslim clerics who accuse it of corrupting people’s values.
