Those voices have been joined by American-born singer and entrepreneur, Akon, who has lent his support for Rahama by inviting her to a film set in Los Angeles, California.

@Rahma_sadau looking forward to seeing u in LA. Let’s empower our women and motivate them to grow. Fanning them is cooler then banning them

The project is in collaboration with renowned Nigerian film-maker, Jeta Amata who also expressed his excitement at teaming with the actress.

@Rahma_sadau We look forward to seeing one of our own in Hollywood!

“Los Angeles calling..so excited about @Jetaamata and @Akon invitation to visit the set of their new film in Hollywood!!”

Rahama Sadau is one of the leading faces of indigenous movie sector, Kannywood but she has begun to get featured in Nollywood.

The collaborative project between Akon and Jeta will see them visit Senegal, South Africa and Nigeria in December.
