Shareef\u2019s Wife and Family"},"content":{"rendered":"

Maryam Shareef is the wife of Umar M. Shareef, a Nigerian music artist, Kannywood actor, and scriptwriter who\u00a0has been singing for over a decade and has acted in movies regarded as some of the top Hausa movies to watch<\/a>. <\/strong>The couple have two children – son Aliyu and daughter Hafsat.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Shareef’s wit, charisma, and the entertaining presentation of roles in movies and music make him prominent. Yet, his career could easily fit as part of his family. This is because his brothers Abdul M. Shareef and Mustapha M. Shareef are both in the entertainment industry, claiming individual fame in movies and music. Here is more about his wife, children, and other famous family members.<\/p>\n

Who is Umar Shareef’s Wife and How Did They Meet?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Umar M. Shareef’s wife is Maryam Shareef. She is from the Northern region of Nigeria and practices Islam. She keeps a private profile despite the fame that surrounds her husband.<\/p>\n

Maryam has been married to her famous husband for no fewer than 5 years. She may not end up a typical northern or Islamic wife, as Umar has shared that he does not intend to take another wife<\/a> but to keep their little family together.<\/p>\n

There are claims that Umar’s vow to be with only Maryam is related to the heartbreaks he suffered before he met his wife. The music crooner confirmed having been in love with a lady, but because he did not have the confidence to get her attention, he lost all chances with her.<\/p>\n

Luckily for him, years down the line, it became favorable to him as he channeled his feelings into his music and songwriting. While he built up his career, he waited for his chance to meet his now wife, Maryam, and did not let her go as he did the previous lady.<\/p>\n

Umar Shareef’s Wife Has Been in His Life Before His Fame<\/strong><\/h2>\n

For Maryam M. Shareef, getting married to Umar M. Shareef while he was cascading and testing the waters of both music and the movie scenes must not have been an easy fit. Nevertheless, they have held a peaceful and united homefront as far as the public is aware.<\/p>\n

Although Umar was exposed to entrainment before he was married to his wife, he became a renowned music and movie sensation after their union. He started to gain recognition for his music in 2017. Over time, he secured his space and became a very popular artist around Nigeria with over 10 albums to his name.<\/p>\n

What many do not know is that Umar M. Shareef has collaborated with stars like M.I. Abaga, Teni<\/a>, Waje, 2Baba<\/a>, Cobhams Asuquo, and Chidinma<\/a>. The collaboration was on a song in 2019 under the Independent National Electoral Commission titled\u00a0“NOT FOR SALE”. <\/em><\/p>\n

The song<\/em> further brought Umar Shafeef’s popularity on a national scale and came in handy during the 2019 elections<\/a> when they encouraged Nigerians to secure their votes and shun violence.<\/p>\n

Still part of his life and definitely being a driving force to his success, Maryam again saw her husband rise to start his acting career in\u00a02017. This was shortly after the couple’s wedding and the birth of their son, Aliyu. His first movie was a Hausa film called Mansoor,<\/em> which was directed by Ali Nuhu<\/a> and produced by Naziru Danhajiya.<\/p>\n

Umar Shareef has acted in several movies since his debut in the Kannywood movie industry with notable English and Hausa star actors such as Rahama Sadau<\/a>, Yakubu Mohammed<\/a>, Paul Sambo, Sani Mu, Patrick Doyle<\/a>, Mofe Duncan, Ali Jita, Adam A. Zango<\/a>, Ado Gwanja, Nura M. Inuwa and Rabiu Rikadawa among others.<\/p>\n
