The Kano State Censorship Board has taken decisive action against popular Kannywood actress, Samba M. Inuwa, by suspending her and revoking her operating license.
Eko Hot Blog gathered that this decision was made due to her violations of the board’s regulations, which include indecent dressing and posting of vulgar content, among others.
In a statement issued and signed by the board’s Information Officer, Abdullahi Sani Sulaiman, Samha had been repeatedly warned about her “crude dressing and vulgar displays,” but she continued to flout the board’s regulations and as such the board had resolved to suspend her.
The board issued a statement clarifying the terms of the suspension imposed on Samha saying she is effectively barred from appearing in any films for the next 12 months, as per the board’s decision.
The suspension is in response to multiple complaints received from the public and concerned citizens in Kano, highlighting the actress’ conduct which allegedly violates the board’s regulations.
In addition to the suspension, the board has also revoked Samha’s operating licenses and ceased censoring any films featuring her.
This decision serves as a firm reminder of the Censorship Board’s commitment to upholding the cultural and moral values of the region and maintaining high standards within the film industry.
The suspension is regarded as a fulfillment of the new leadership of the board under Abba Al-Mustapha to bring back sanity into the Hausa filmmaking industry.
