Nollywood actors Kanayo O Kanayo, Segun Arinze and others will be starring in comedian AY Makun’s movie titled Almajiri, Igbere TV reports.

AY shared pictures and a video from the making of the movie on Instagram on Wednesday.

According to him, the movie is based on true life experiences in the Northern part of the country.

“The most honest form of filmmaking it to make a film that tells our stories and existing realities. We are currently on working on a film tilted ALMAJIRI. It is based on true life experiences in the northern part of Nigeria. The movie Almajiri is designed to tell a very common story of children who are subjected to the high level of poverty faced by most families living in that region.

“These children often wander the streets begging for food, clothes, and other necessities thus making them vulnerable to chronic ill-health, sexual and physical abuse, human trafficking, slavery, drugs etc,” he wrote.

Segun also shared pictures on Instagram.

He said filmmaking is an art that demands the body and soul.

“Film making is an art that demands your body and soul as you strive to give your best. The Actor’s joy is in the truth. The moments he/she creates and the reality he/she lives in,” he wrote.

“See not who the Actor is, but what the Actor has become. These are images from The Movie ‘ALMAJIRI.’”

Dead on arrival......
Even the AY magun ain't got no talent both in the movie and comedy industry..
You all can quote and insult me...no problem....ain't scared because am a real niggarrr

That is the beginning of our break up

This won't stop the practice. Jonathan built schools for them, they didn't attend.
It's a religious procedure design for the kids born with "plastic spoons".
I lived in Maiduguri for a few years, and I discovered those kids won't stop being ALMAJIRIS; it's fun for them.

What should be done instead, would be to prohibit Our Poor Northern brothers from marrying more than a wife(which would be a religious infraction) and having limited number of children.

Good-looking out to AY

This country should have been one united country but when Buhari happened, he divided it.

This movie is gonna suck.

Nice concept, great movie! Prop /BB guns are better with superb editing. These ones are too heavy for set.

Look's like a boring movie to me.... I need something like "Beast of no Nation"

I’m sorry to say if you want to go into movies it’s not all about the story, the interpretation should be 100 too... the customs are not just for me..

Is that not segun arize I see there?

Kanayo sacrificed a lot to get to where he is now

I don't get why I'm seeing more of segun arinze than kanayo

don't think that you can educate these Muslims with movies,

if it were possible, Indian movies would have done the trick

these people will never change

begging is Islamic
giving alms is one of the five pillars of Islam
