TAHRIFF PRESENTS: “LEGEND OF KHUM’GBOW” TO SCREEN AT 2025 NATIONAL KWARARAFA ETHNIC SUMMIT IN ABUJA
July 3rd–4th| Abuja, Nigeria
The 15 minutes investors copy directed by Ambassador Hoom Suk Alex Jibrin, Legend of Khum’gbow reimagines the final days of Queen Amina — the iconic warrior queen — believed, through oral tradition, to have met her end during a military expedition in the Ganawuri region of historic Gwash (now Jos). The film goes beyond biography, weaving an epic tale of the kwararafa lineage, including the son taken from her and returned to the Khum’gbow vicinity and the future of the people he sired — referred to as “The Lost Star of the North and their epic battles to secure the middle belt region of Nigeria as the oasis of the region in every ramification.
The screening at the summit will serve as a launchpad for investment and partnership opportunities in the full-length feature series, which plans to include over 1,500 cast members in an expansive cinematic retelling of the Kwararafa kingdom’s legends, Khum’gbow’s legacy, and the spiritual dynamism of the ancient generals and Bori priestesses.
Drawing creative inspiration from globally successful African-centered epics like Shaka Zulu, The Woman King, and Black Panther, Legend of Khum’gbow positions itself as Nigeria’s answer to culturally rich, commercially viable historical cinema — combining authentic storytelling, grand-scale production, and modern feminist interpretations grounded in African heritage.
With TAHRIFF as publicists, producers are now inviting investors, cultural stakeholders, and global distributors to explore this visionary project as a case study in historical African epics with international appeal.
