AFRICA Magic has said it’s gearing up to be an even more productive year with a slate of brand- new content launching alongside the New Year.

The broadcast firm premiered a new show on January 1 and will release five more others till January 23, 2024. The shows cut across diverse genres.

After The Theory of Breakfast, which launched on January 1, and Hook, Line and Sinkah on January 3, yesterday, it was the turn of Manfriend. It is considered one of the most chaotic family dramas African TV has experienced yet. Set in the heart of a bustling city, the King family navigates a whirlwind of emotions, secrets, and aspirations amid planning their mother’s grand 50th birthday bash. Doosuur King, the dependable middle daughter, takes the lead in organising the event. She employs her sisters’ help, but they are too absorbed in their conflicts to contribute to the party arrangements. The show airs at 8: 30p. m every Friday on Africa Magic Showcase.

Unscripted takes on the form of a popular reality TV show’s reunion. The series promises to be messier than any legendary Nigerian reunion ever. Every reality TV fan will enjoy the unmitigated chaos, abundance of drama and the everchanging landscape of ships. The show stars Bobby Ekpe, Wumi Tuase, Obehi Aburime, Ajayi Akorede ( aka The Korexx), Debby Felix, Eby Eno, Nonso Bassey, Austine Onuoha, Martha Ehinome, Shalewa Ashafa, and more.
