Season 1 Of An African City On Youtube
An African City has been lauded as Ghana’s answer to Sex and the City, and show creator Nicole Amartefiois just fine with the comparison. The new (and already massive) web series captures the cultural and romantic missteps of five women trying to settle in Accra after years away from home. Their triumphs and trials in everyday life makes for some very addictive entertainment so keep your fingers crossed for Season 2! For now, you can find all ten episodes from Season 1 on YouTube.
