“Set in the fictional Kingdom of Jallaba, a King’s choice of his successor, his daughter, brews conflict amongst the ruling clans, hanging the economic stability and prospect of a new dynasty in the balance. Who will rule – a princess, her rival, or a deposed clan? Can Jallaba survive?”

Directed by Prince Daniel, and produced in Hausa Language with English subtitles, ‘Mai Martaba’ beat three others and ‘Kaka’, the director’s second submission for the Oscars to secure the spot.

“‘Mai Martaba’ is more than just a story,” said Daniel, “It is inspired by the quest to tell an authentic African story; the desire to showcase the depth of Hausa culture and address modern filmmaking challenges in northern Nigeria. It is a celebration of our culture, our struggles, and our triumphs as Nigerians.”

Screening will hold at Silverbird Cinema, Jabi Lake Mall, Abuja.
