Sir am the wrong guy for your message.
thre is one ganians man call EMMANUEL who respsents African filmakers and do press work on their behalf. I oce receive and email to my inbox on the same projectn some time past and I follow it. The guy posted the messages and press release on behalf or Mr. Sankanu and made and mistakes my wring ".net" instead of ".com" at the end of his addess.
He apologied to me and since then I have not got disturbance on that. You can sdives Sanku to tell his assistant to chekc their facts when posintg his information to avoid confusinfion
I took the trouble of finfin out how best you can reach Sankanu, here are somewbiste that carry materials on him from GOOGLE:
http://www.nollywoodwatch.com/bubacarr-sankanu-speaks-on-nigerias-home-video-sector/
www.africac.org
www.afromediafilmandtv.net
www.deutschnigerianischesfilmforum.org
www.microfinanceforhaiti.org
www.africanpswu.org
I am sure you will find his email adess on them.
