Chichi Nworah, the producer of the series, Shanty Town, is back with another drama that explores the life of a street hustler in Lagos.
Slum King, an Africa Magic original, will premiere on October 8 on Africa Magic Showcase.
Nworah’s passion for telling stories that reflect the diversity and richness of African cultures and experiences can also be felt in Slum King. She stands out in pulling Nollywood out of the usual drama-telling format, to a new vista of Hollywood-styled dramatic actions, without sacrificing reality.
Slum King is the second major collaboration between Chichi Nworah and prominent streaming platforms in 2023, after the success of Shanty Town, released early this year on Netflix.
Slum King is part of the entertainment newly commissioned by Africa Magic to mark its 20 years of creating magic. Over the years, Africa Magic has built a reputation for bringing entertainment loved by Africa and produced by Africans.
