As a reality and TV series junkie, I am so excited and cannot wait to see what the Real Naija Ladies of Dallas will bring.
Interestingly, before these ladies debuted their show, my sisters and I have been doing some recording of our own, watch this space…
It was great – a little annoying – to see that other Nigerians, are thinking the same thing and have gone straight in.
The truth be say, big -money making – market dey for programmes like this. See how popular the Real Housewives franchises, Omotola Jalade Ekehinde, the Braxtons, Keeping up with the Kardashians and co are.
Trailer
Taking money out of the picture, our programme aims to show our challenges, relationships, happy moments, and how we deal with them. So this production was fascinating to watch.
The show centers around five ladies – Jennifer, Jeri, Latoya, Nonye and Jeni Coco – and their lives in Dallas. 4 out of the 5 ladies originate from Nigeria, you can follow them here.
Since the trailer came out there has been lots of supportive comments although some people created time to post negative comments. From the look of one of these people’s pages, they are God-fearing, so why the un-Godly comment.
Needless to say, with over 38 000 views in less than a month, these ladies are on the up.
