An African City Is Back! Watch Season 2 Trailer

Posted in: , ,

I went kinda crazy last year over the web series, An African City written by Ghanaian Nicole Amarteifio, about five well educated and upwardly mobile African women. All the main stars of the show are returnees from America or the UK - and are now home in an African city where they try to navigate life, love and relationships on their own terms.

I called it Sex and the City in Africa, and going by the season 2 trailer which came online a few days ago, the drama continues! And it comes with a large serving of fashion and glam. You can read my intro post for the series here, a review of the entire series here, and watch all the episodes on RML, here.

Been wondering for a couple of weeks what 'an African city' is all about. I give it to their public relations team, an African city is on every influential blog online.
