Career 

Aisha Aliyu Tsamiya’s acting career had a fairytale-like beginning. She unexpectedly became a sensation in Kannywood. People rarely achieve quick fame after making their debut in a motion picture. But the opposite transpired for her. It had to do with Tsamiya, her debut movie in Kannywood.

Her elder sister was supposed to appear in the 2011 movie, but for whatever reason, she was unable to. Aisha Aliyu subsequently caught the attention of the producer, Habibu Yaro, who thought she had the appearance of the character required to fit into that role. Although she had no prior acting experience, Yaro took a major risk by giving her a chance. Aisha Aliyu delivered a strong and memorable performance and the movie’s name has remained stuck with her ever since, as movie fans continuously refer to her as “Tsamiya” to this day.

According to her, she never imagined she would become famous in the profession in such a short period. She now shares the screen alongside A-list actors and celebrities in Kannywood such as Ali Nuhu, Halima Atete, Tanimu Akawo, and Al-ameen Buhari.
