All Progressives Congress, APC chieftain and founder of the AA Zaura Foundation, His Excellency Abdulkarim Abdussalam Zaura has called on Women especially those in the Film industry to protect their Chastity and integrity as women.
Zaura made this call when the Association of Kannywood Actress paid him a special visit to hand over a video of a song they contribute money to sing for him in his Abuja residence on Thursday evening.
He said being a woman, that is, an actress does not signify automation to be looked at as a bad woman or a lesser woman as he urged the practitioners to first purify the profession before they expect anyone to do so.
Zaura who emotionally called on them to avoid any activity that is inimical to societal moral decadence as well as any act of wrongdoing also called on them to fish out bad elements amongst them so that people do not use pluralism on them all, he added.
“Go back to school, educate yourself the more, I assure you that I will set up a committee to look into selecting amongst you to further your education even if it means studying abroad, “it is high time this profession of yours is taken with Value and Respect but as I said it starts all from you” Zaura said
Members of the association who were emotional on his words assured him that they will continue to keep their chastity and integrity as he advised, and will do their best in seeing those bad elements are not allowed to undercover in the name of actress, on furthering their education, they assured Zaura that they are ever ready to do the needful anytime and all times.
The actress were led by their Chair Lady Hajia Fatima Lulu, Senior Directors; Ali Gumzak, Aminu S Bono, Abdul’aziz M small and Head of Kannywood Dancers Ali Ali.
The event which has over 100 participants winded up with chanting the Solidarity song for Zaura and presentation was made to His Excellency of the CD plates of the art work.
