Tiwa Savage on set, getting into character During the shoshugar

Tiwa Savage is one of the few Nigerians involved in the third season of MTV Base series, Shuga and was spotted during the shoot yesterday. 

Shuga is expected to air by December this year. Celebrated Nigerian film-maker Biyi Bandele, director of the hotly anticipated feature film of Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s “Half of a Yellow Sun”, will direct the 8-part series. Crafting the screenplay for Shuga is a team of Nigerian writers led by award-winning scriptwriter Kemi Adesoye (“Tinsel”, “The Figurine”, “Doctors Quarters”, “National Cake”), who was hand-picked for the project by Bandele after he saw her screenplay for “Phone Swap”.
