The Telenovela takes the viewers back almost a full century in history to a time of rich culture, pride and heritage. Starring alongside her former housemate, Bassey, Fmi Branch, William Benson, Lota Chukwu and veteran actress, Hilda Dokubo, TBoss played the role of the King’s wife, who was murdered in cold blood while carrying his baby boy in her womb. The Telenovela, showing every weeknight, premieres on Monday, on Africa Magic Showcase.

Regional Director, M-Net West Africa, Wangi Mba-Uzoukwu, said: “Ajoche is a story of love, revenge, betrayal and power that captures your imagination and takes you on a journey through time. The story draws from a little known but incredible time in our history, and we are excited to bring all the excitement to screens across Africa.”
