 +Administration at FCE Kano, an academic pursuit he is into since
 +late 2004.
 +`Sani Danja' as he is fondly called, is one actor that never failed
 +to delight his fans on and off the screen. The actor who has managed
 +to establish himself as a great actor was born into a family of
 +seven, five boys and two girls, Sani lost his father, Alhaji
 +Musa Abdullahi sometime in his late teenage years before his mother
 +Hajiya Risikat died in 1997.
 +
 +Sani steadily climbed the ladder of success armed with hard work, determination and sheer
 +talent, natural born entertainer,​a very good dancer at the early age of 12, was blessed with a
 +sonorous voice that never seized to thrill his audience. He
 +was an outstanding member of the `Young Kiddies Voice' a musical
 +children'​s group that dazzled during the late eighties, `those were
 +my most cherished moment of singing, though they were all
 +Christians he was the only Muslim member but got along very well",
 +"​Eventually co-singers with `YKV' started singing as choirs, that was what led to the break-up of the group",​ Sani Danja continue his music career as a solo, the first step that brought him
 +to limelight. And he was responsible for producing one of the best selling Hausa song in the early nineties. `Yaki-taho-yaki'​. he ventured into the Hausa movie industry in 1999 with
 +his debut movie `students'​ (dalibai), a film he produced and directed alongside his business partner Yakubu Muhammad. "​Alhaji Rabi'u K/Wambai called me up and said you have a gift why don't you join the Hausa movie industry",​
 +After the success of Students (Dalibai), then came another hit
 +movie `Adon kishiya'​ in the year 2000, came `Kwarya tabi
 +Kwarya',​ a super movie he acted alongside Jamila Haruna in the same
 +year (2000). In the same year (2000), Sani Danja acted alongside
 +Tahir Fagge and Kasimu Yaro in the blockbuster movie `Wasiyya',​ the
 +success of Wasiyya furnished Sani Danja with a rising sense of
 +popularity and accomplishment. This particularly geared him to be
 +casted in `Nagari',​ a Sarauniya Films blockbuster movie, in which he
 +acted a competitive role alongside a co-star Ali Nuhu. A film that
 +stirred rumours that the two actors are having grudges against each
 +other. Sani Danja who is regarded by hausamovie.com fans as the most
 +successful actor in the industry, claimed to have no grudge
 +whatsoever with the star actor Ali Nuhu, "Ali is my very good
 +friend, we got along well, there is hardly anything one of us does
 +without consulting the other on locations, I have no problem
 +whatsoever with him and never will", he concluded.
 +
 +A star wing of `Two Effects',​ a super production company, Sani Danja
 +is said to be a hit-promoter of any film he starred in, the actor
 +played a lead role in the English-version of Wasila, a super hit
 +movie produced by Lerewa Productions Kaduna, Sani Danja'​s success in
 +the industry have been widely criticised, the actor who is very
 +straight with his works seem to give less attention to
 +that, "​Success comes with critics, people have the right to say what
 +they want to, I don't care, people only talk about you if you are
 +doing well, why don't they say these things (10) ten years ago, that
 +is because I was not as successful as I am today",​ he concluded.
 +Sani Danja is regarded as the most sought after face in the movie industry.
 +
 +The star actor who is also a model, he signed a contract worth millions with giant telecommunication company, `STARCOMMS',​ and that was evident on billboards and posters
 +around the nation. The actor'​s contributions have been greatly
 +acclaimed internationally. `2-Effets'​ his giant production company
 +signed some millions worth of contract with Global Health Forum, a
 +production he managed with his close friend Yakubu Muhammad. The
 +contract gave birth to `Jan Kunne',​ an international acknowledge
 +film on HIV/AIDS awareness. A film that was now used by over 30
 +countries as resource material. Sometime last year, the two Hausa
 +movie icons (Sani Danja and Yakubu Muhammad) featured on the back
