Award-winning-actress, Kate Henshaw has called on relevant authorities to release Sunusi Oscar, a Hausa movie director, who is allegedly in prison.

According to a post on her Instagram page on Friday, Oscar’s refusal to support the current administration of Kano State governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje, is the reason behind his imprisonment.

Kate stated that information reaching her reveals that the Kano State Censorship Board headed by Ismaila Afakallah arrested him for releasing a music video on YouTube without permission, and 4 years ago he released a Hausa music video into the market without censorship certificate. He was then taken to court and the judge refused him bail and Oscar was sent straight to prison.

This singular act, according to the actress is injustice and Injustice to one, is an injustice to all.

“His offence..? That last month, he released a music video on YouTube without permission (is censorship board needed here?) and 4 years ago he released a Hausa music video into the market without censorship certificate…

“Sunusi told the court, he was just the director of the videos, he is neither the artiste, producer/marketer who distributed the said videos.

“Info reaching me is that his refusal to support the current administration of Ganduje is the reason behind this…..

“This is so so wrong and condemned in entirety…
