NOLLYWOOD VERSION OF THAT SERIES CALLED "BRIDGERTON"

Late last year 2020, a colleague told me about the 8 episodes series named Bridgerton. Exactly 3days after she talked about the series, Twitter NG was washed by the series. The buzz, trends and clips of the series was so much that I had to download the series and see for myself. Honestly, it was really worth the watch.

So, with the buzz of the Season 1 and as the world awaits Season 2 (which promises to be more explosive); Some dudes online started engaging everyone with the Nollywood version of Bridgerton; It was so fun and informative that I decided to write about it at the end of the day.

Join me on this short journey as we go through some of the notable Characters in the series and compare them with the best possible fit with some of our Naija’s Best in Nollywood.

I hope we enjoy the best fit Nollywood version:
