Kano state-based film association (Kannywood) have rallied for a Governorship aspirant of Kano state Alhaji Abdussalam Abdulkarim Zaura.
The convener of the rally and a Kannywood star T.Y Shaba made the assertion shortly after honouring the aspirant.
Shaba said Zaura happens to be their chosen aspirant for Kano state Governor under the umbrella of the All Progressive Party (APC).
This is coming almost a year before the 2023 general election in the country.
He said the support is necessary considering his number of achievements and humanitarian development, and Philanthropic activities rendered to the people of Kano state irrespective of Political difference.
Speaking earlier, Kannywood practitioner Sharif Aminu Ahlan said they showed total solidarity to Alhaji Abdussalam Abdulkarim Zaura looking at his start-up and their belief if he becomes the state governor he would help the film industry professionals.
“He’s different in the people aspiring for the Governorship seat, and we’re sure he’ll deliver well when given support during the 2023 general election.
“Of course, our dream of establishing a film village will come to reality as our strategy for doing so is still on the ground.
“There’s a need for Ulamas to understand the advantage attached to establishing such centres by employing many of our teeming youth residing in the state,” Ahlan.
The movie star added that they chose A. A Zaura, because of the trust he will implement programs and projects aimed at developing the industry.
“For many decades, we’re into this journey of Politics, and many candidates benefitted from us by selling their campaign promises to the general public, but when they get into power, then your importance is no more,” Sharif Aminu Ahlan.
The honoured Gubernatorial aspirant, Alhaji Abdussalam Abdulkarim Zaura, appreciated the kind gesture by the Kannywood stars and promised to fulfil all their dreams.
A.A Zaura said it is high time for the general public to honour Film Stars looking at the contribution they are given to society socially and morally.
