The story of Hush revolves around Bem and Arinola,
power-players in fashion and politics respectively. Bem, played by Richard
Mofe-Damijo, is one of Africa’s biggest designers based in Lagos State,
Nigeria, and Arinola, played by Thelma Okoduwa, is one of the state’s fastest rising
politicians. The intrigue begins when Bem proposes marriage to Arinola, an
action that sets in motion a chain of events propelled by the secrets in their
respective lives, secrets that run through the backrooms of secret societies,
the corridors of the judiciary and on social media.

Hush follows in the stead of Africa Magic’s recently concluded and highly
popular Nigerian telenovella, Hotel
Majestic, and promises to keep viewers entertained with its themes of love,
power, high-society, betrayal and intrigue. The telenovella explores the precarious and delicate weaving between seemingly
disparate worlds which co-exist in Lagos, each possessing its own eco-system based
on interconnecting, seamless interaction, secret alliances and loyalty.

“There’s a co-dependency of which not all
players are aware. Sometimes this is a healthy relationship, often times not. The
cast of Hush is stellar and the show
marks a return to television for a number of renowned actors and actresses. All
these factors make for exciting viewing and we can’t wait for our viewers from
all over Africa to tune in,” Mba-Uzoukwu added.
