Last year, Northflix raised a seed investment from a VC firm. And in spite of the investment the company attracts, Jamilu added that successes can not be recorded without challenges and one of the major challenge confronted  by Northflix was how one of its international competitors Netflix challenged them on intellectual property right through the copyright commission on their brand identity, “we were able to establish a common ground for both parties.”

As a result of that Northflix is now attracting other indigenous streaming platforms like Arewa on Demand, Kallo and Kannywood box to compete in this ecosystem. Of course, competition brings about healthy productivity and efficiency in outputs by the companies, this’s why Northflix is going in line with best international practices .

Northflix has recently sealed partnership deal with the 9mobile being one of the leading telecommunication companies in Nigeria to provide affordable internet data for its Nigerian customers. And to make the customers download as much contents on the app to watch later offline. 

Jamilu Abdussalam also called on government to invest so much attention and resources in the entertainment industry as way to curb the lingering menace in the country by way of creating sensitization and by keeping the youth engaged with a lot of job opportunities.
