Multitalented Fati SU is a force to reckon with in the northern Nigeria movie industry. In 2017, she did not disappoint her fans and Kannywood film investors alike.

Although she does not belong to the new school of Kannywood actors, she has been able to reinvent herself and remain relevant through the years. A crossover act, her appeal goes beyond Kannywood as she also features in Gbagyi and Nupe films.

She was a delight to watch in the first English movie from the stables of Kannywood titled This is the Way.’ Fati was also exceptional in 2017 and going by our ratings, she sure deserves to be the face of Kannywood in 2017.
