I think the actor is Hausa but engaged in Igbo attire for purpose of acting the movie. I looked at the screen cast at the end of the movie and all actors and actresses names were Islamic/Hausa.

He is hausa. I don't know his real name, but he is nicknamed baban chinedu (chinedu's father)
He usually play's the role of an igbo man living amongst hausa people.

I learnt that once an interview with him and he was asked how he plays that character perfectly, and he replied telling them that, when he was in school, they had a classmate who was an igbo, and could speak hausa. But because of his igbo accent, most people made fun of him when he spoke hausa baban chinedu inclusive, infact he said he was the leader in tormenting him coz of his igbotic accent. Lol

cheesy

Not really. I just skimmed through the movie to see if the actor was actually Igbo and looked at the end of the movie at the cast. I barely even have time for movies in general.
