The Hausa movie industry better known as Kannywood, is not slowing down in trying to showcase how good they are in telling the Nigerian story in the most modest way they can despite not getting the needed awareness like their counterparts.

 In celebrating its own through their hardwork and dedication, a group have come together to ensure that those in Kannywood gets recognized come November 2016.

It is no doubt that the Hausa movie industry fondly called Kannywood is a thriving one. However, not much has been done to promote and celebrate the sector because some do not have the courage to take the bull by the horn.

Come November 2016, the Arewa Film Festival & Awards, AFFA, will take place in Kaduna as plans are in top gear to make the event a world class.
