Shuga to Be Screened in Abuja

The award winning television drama Shuga will be screened in Abuja on Wednesday, 22 January at the Silverbird Galleria in Abuja.

The event, which will be hosted by the National Action Committee on Aids (NACA), will treat audiences to a viewing of some episodes from the series, which was previously shown on television on MTV Base since December 2013.

Shuga is a sex and relationship drama designed to combat a lack of awareness and misinformation about HIV, sexual responsibility, and teen pregnancy among Nigerian youth.

The highly-acclaimed series premiered in Lagos recently to a larger audience including the star-studded cast and crew, and some musicians.

 Expected at the Abuja screening is the series’ director, Biyi Bandele and cast members including Dorcas Fapson who plays Sophie and James Timini Egbuson who plays Tobi. The show also features singer Tiwa Savage. 

Shuga is produced by MTV Base and MTV Staying Alive Foundation, in collaboration with NACA, the Bill& Melinda Gates Foundation, the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA), and the US President’s Emergency Plan For AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).
