After premiering in Nigeria some months back, the producers of Lekki Wives, have decided to showcase Africa to the world with the series premiering in Manchester and in London.

Lekki Wives is a new series produced and directed by Blessing Effiom Egbe, the producer of “Two Brides and a Baby,” whose has other romantic comedies in the past. It is a scripted drama comedy series, more like Desperate Housewives.

The height of the event was the vibrant presence of the ‘Badoo king,’ Olamide, who thrilled the guests with numerous of his hit tracks.

According to Blessing Effiom Egbe, Lekki wives is touted to “highlight the lives and antics of five women who live in the highbrow, posh Lekki area of Lagos and is a true reflection of the modus operandi of many wealthy, fashionable and “happening’ women who call it home.”

The series producers say they aim to teach, inform and at the same time, entertain viewers with the show, with stars like Kiki Omeili, Adaora Ukoh, Katherine Edoho, Keira Hewatch, and Chinomnso Young as the main characters.
