Closure brings along some shocking revelations. We have come to the end of the first season of Ndani TV’s YouTube series Love Like This, with episode 12 titled “Closure”. It has indeed been a long ride into various characters’ love life and we have reached a point that is expected to be a defining point for the couples.

We have seen an increase in Nollywood content being streamed on Netflix and in the streamer’s productions with various Nigerian filmmakers. Ranging from titles with Kunle Afolayan (Swallow), EbonyLife (Castle and Castle) and the sequel of King of Boys with Kemi Adetiba amongst so many other licensed titles, the stars of Blood Sisters have previously appeared in other projects, which we have collated for global Nollywood newbies and those that need some form of memory refresh.

Isn’t it a bit too late for the brewing drama? After last week’s bottle episode, “Double Date”, at the restaurant, we return to the lives of other couples and also get to see how Abiye feels about Kamal’s outburst that closed the previous episode. Love Like This episode 10 begins with Maka and her mom trying to reach a compromise on Maka’s new path as a YouTuber. Maka’s mum insists on a 6-month probation and if during that period Maka’s YouTube dream doesn’t work, she would go for her master’s. Maka is initially hesitant to such an agreement, but later…
Might Abiye be slowly eating a highly anticipated worse meal? As the title already implies, the double date is the only event that takes place across this bottle episode, featuring the lover pair, Kamal and Abiye alongside the forced lovers, Teni and Chidi. It vexed me that an entire episode focused on these duo pairs providing nothing new that wasn’t expected already. 9 episodes in and major questions surrounding Teni, which we could have gotten closer to in this episode, are still left unanswered: what is the mystery behind Teni’s love life? Who does she secretly have feelings for? Is…
