Everyone loves a love story, especially when they don’t know what to expect, and it’s nothing like the cheesy romance films Hollywood has produced thousands of times in a thousand different ways.
Africa Magic proudly presents the highly anticipated Hausa series, Kariya, this weekend. The series will take everything you know about love stories and redefine your ideas in the face of chaos and choices.
According to Dr. Busola Tejumola, The Executive Head of Content & West Africa Channels at MultiChoice, “Kariya is a series that entertains and delves into the intricacies of human relationships and the unexpected twists that life throws our way. The show is Africa Magic’s testament to delivering content that resonates with our diverse and discerning audience. Kariya allows us to tell the most intimate love story in the most unexpected way possible while celebrating our local language and customs”.
Kariya, premiering at 8 pm on Africa Magic Hausa this Friday, is a riveting series that revolves around the lives of Tariq and Hadiza Al-Hassan, renowned Islamic relationship counsellors whose world teeters on the edge of collapse. Tariq’s infidelity threatens to escalate into a public scandal. It jeopardises their marriage and career, as they’ve made a name for themselves by helping other couples in trouble and being the ultimate ‘couple goal’.
Tariq’s mistress, Zara, makes a messy situation even more difficult as she threatens to spill the couple’s dirty secrets on social media and announce that she is carrying Tariq’s baby. She leverages the child as a powerful weapon, and her vow to expose their lengthy affair on social media sets off a relentless game of blackmail and deception.
Just like the saying goes, when it rains, it pours, and that indeed becomes the case for the Alhassans as chaos strikes when armed individuals fleeing the police invade their home. Tariq and Hadiza find themselves bound and silenced, making survival their sole objective. As tension mounts and hidden truths come to light, Kariya becomes an exhilarating exploration of choices and the hope that emerges even in the darkest times.
Dr Tejumola added further, “With Kariya, viewers can expect an unforgettable journey that challenges our notions of trust, loyalty, and the choices we make when faced with chaos. It’s a story that will keep you eagerly anticipating each new episode.”
Don’t miss Kariya’s grand premiere on Friday, the 22nd of September, at 8 p.m. on Africa Magic Hausa. New episodes will air every Friday to Sunday at 8 p.m., exclusively on Africa Magic Hausa (DStv channel 156 and GOtv channel 3).
Join us this weekend as we embark on a gripping journey of hope, choices, and the unconquerable human spirit in the face of chaos.
