The Real Housewives of Abuja episode 2 recap: Bad boys and Botox
In The Real Housewives of Abuja episode 2 showed these women come with drama; they throw shades, and sarcasm is a second language. In today’s episode, they try to get to know each other and settle the differences and bad vibes from Samantha’s party. It didn’t go exactly well.
“We have scores to settle ‘cause I know you,” Princess Jekoko tells Arafat, referencing the latter saying she doesn’t know her. “From where?” Arafa asks mischievously. “No, seriously, I have met you once.”
Princess mentioned, “They are not friends like that,” but she isn’t happy Arafa treats her like a stranger. It recalls Laura asking for Chioma Good Hair’s attention from the Lagos edition.
However, away from the I-don’t-know-you drama, Arafa is hosting the girls this time. It is a drag party, but she won’t invite Samantha because she finds her boringly quiet despite fangirling her throughout their chat at the gym.
“I don’t think I am going to invite Samantha to my party because, for my party, I want energy,” she says. She did invite her to join her pole-dancing clientele, though.
Samantha attends anyway!
During lunch with OJ Posharella, Samantha learns about Arafa’s party. “Well, she didn’t invite me. She didn’t say a word to me,” she tells OJ, who is shocked both women met and interacted at the gym, but there was no mention of the party. OJ decides to invite her.
Samantha is taking this graciously. So far, she generally seems relaxed about things and won’t allow anyone to mess up her regal vibe. “Arafa did not invite me to her party. I guess it escaped her memory, either way, I’m going to show up,” she says later in the show.
Operation 'Get Tutu Pie a Bad Boy'
Apparently, Tutu Pie has a thing for bad boys — those fine, well-built Abuja young men, always in Trad, looking for whom to devour — and she is currently single and searching. Arafa raises the matter with Comfort and Princess while advertising her drag party. “Our girl, Tutu, wants a hookup,” she says. “She wants us to hook her up with a man.”
Princess, who is Tutu’s girl, worries about her friend’s penchant for bad boys. She understands the high with such men but feels it’s not sustainable and attracts the wrong energy. Arafa feels Princess is saying too much. Comfort, as usual, has an interesting comment.
“What I don’t understand here is, how do you want to set her up on a blind date with, for example, an angel if she is still in demon mode?”
Who looks older?
“So, all my friends are way older than I am,” Princess says from nowhere, bringing the fact that she is the youngest of the women to the fore. “Like I’m literally the baby, but you’ll never know because my mind is smart, honey; my mind is too mature, honey; my mind is too fresh, honey.”
But who asked you?
Then she brings Tutu Pie into the conversation. “We were so close back in the day and she was like, how much older than I am?”
“I am 35, bitch. What’s your problem?” Tutu Pie replies. She is very much proud of her age and reminds us she looks a decade younger.
The women celebrate being older to drown the age-shaming, then Arafa dropped a bomb! “You look older than all of us in here and you’re the youngest one.” But trust Princess not to go down without a fight.
“She literally has tapes all over her eye, dragging all the flesh and all the sagging skin,” she starts. “Like literally most of the girls on this table have done their bodies, have Botox! In fact, they have scattered their face trying to nip and tuck, so what are you saying?”
