Showmax has announced that media personality Akah Nnani will host the two-part reunion show of The Real Housewives of Abuja, which premieres on the streaming platform on Friday, 26 May with the concluding part on Friday, 2 June 2023.
The actor, TV host and content creator is popularly known for his vlog "Akah Bants", where he talks about trending topics while having fun conversations with guests. He has also featured in several films, including the Africa Magic Original Ajoche (2018) and other hit titles like Banana Island Ghost (2017), Lara and the Beat (2018), and most recently, Man of God (2022).
The Real Housewives of Abuja reunion will see the six ladies - Arafa, Comfort Booth, OJ Posharella, Princess Jecoco, Samantha Homosanny and Tutupie - sit to discuss all that happened on the show, with Akah moderating the session and getting all the juicy details but most importantly, aiming to bring closure to several dramas that unfolded over the course of the season.

Commenting on his role as host, Akah said: “The Real Housewives of Abuja is a show I enjoyed, and I’m excited to be hosting the ladies to a conversation where we visit and discuss issues from the show. The ladies brought their A-game and gave us premium entertainment on the show, so you can rest assured the reunion is going to bring more of that. This is a big deal for me, and I’m totally prepared to ensure the fans get the best and juiciest details from the show.”
The debut season of The Real Housewives of Abuja was packed with drama, over-the-top fashion statements, exquisite getaways, soirées with good conversations and heartwarming moments. Fans of the show got front row seats as these ladies shared their personal and professional lives.
The season finale took viewers on a ride, with the ladies enjoying the beautiful city of Cape Town and its nightlife. Arafa’s mum made an appearance in this episode and showered some words of wisdom on her daughter. The Incredible Minister of Happiness, OJ Posharella, surprised everyone when she revealed her spiritual decision to remain a virgin, and we also witness the tension between Princess and Tutupie, the once inseparable friends, who went head to head with threats of secrets being exposed.
Fans of the reality series can binge-watch the entire season ahead of the anticipated reunion show on 19 and 26 May 2023.
The Real Housewives of Abuja is produced by Delmedia Productions and is part of The Real Housewives franchise licensed as a format by NBCUniversal Formats, which is part of Universal International Studios, a division of Universal Studio Group.
