This week sees the official launch of IROKOtv in Ghana. The home of Nollywood and Ghanaian movies, and Africa’s leading digital entertainment company, has landed in Accra, to bring the best movies and original TV series to Ghanaian fans. 

Some of the most recent movies and TV series include Stalemate, Ghana Must Go and Black and White.

Launched by Ghanaian superstar Jackie Appiah, IROKOtv has rolled out over 25 bright pink kiosks across Accra, that will enable users to download Ghanaian and Nigerian movies and TV series directly onto their mobile devices, without using any of their data allowance. 

Kiosks can be found in areas including Accra Mall, A & C Mall, Oxford Street Osu, VVIP Circle, KFC Haatso, Pure Fire Ministry Achimota, Adenta SSNIT Fats, Accra Polytechnic, National Lottery, Accra Central and Lagos Avenue.

Jackie Appiah says: “I have worked with IROKOtv since their earliest days, and am so proud that they are now coming to Accra to bring even more amazing Ghanaian and Nollywood content to our fans here. The IROKOtv app is really easy to use, the selection of movies is really impressive and now, especially with the free downloads from the kiosks, it couldn’t be easier. 

Whether you’re in hair and makeup on-set, which is where I often catch up on my content, or you’re on the trotro headed to work, you can watch your favourite stars anytime, anywhere”.

IROKOtv will be launching across Accra with a team of nearly 30 and expect the number of staff to increase to 140 by the end of November, to bring 100% Ghanaian and Nigerian movies and TV series to subscribers’ mobile phones, for only GHC 25 for a one year subscription.

IROKOtv kiosks will be staffed six days a week - from Monday to Saturday - and movie fans can purchase subscriptions, download the app on their smart phones,  and download movies directly onto their phone, data free.

Here’s how to do it:

Step 1: Users can visit any of the kiosks and an agent will help them download the IROKOtv app on the user's mobile device or tablet.

Step 2: The agent will also help the user subscribe to IROKOtv, facilitate offline payments and also provide free data download of the subscribers choice of Ghanaian and Nigerian movies or TV Series.

Step 3: Users can enjoy their download movies at their own convenience - anytime, anywhere, anyplace.

Jason Njoku, CEO of IROKO says: “Ghanaian movies and Nollywood are part of the fabric of African entertainment; the very best of African storytelling. 

We know that our Ghanaian neighbours cannot get enough great content, but that data costs have all too often been prohibitive to them watching content online.

We hope that with the launch of the IROKOtv kiosks across Ghana that provide data-free downloads, and a one year subscription to IROKOtv at just GHC 25, we will be able to build an even bigger community of online Nollywood fans here in Ghana”.

No 'Shower Hour' On Big Brother Naija - Says MultiChoice

By
As preparations are in top gear for the second edition of social reality TV show, Big Brother Nigeria, organisers have revealed that there will be no broadcast of nude footage called ‘Shower Hour’, when the show returns on January 22, 2017. This comes to some fans as ‘decent’, following the controversies generated by that segment of the show, during the now rested continental edition, Big Brother Africa (BBA). MultiChoice is bringing back the Nigerian version of the series after 10 years. It had announced after the last edition of BBA that each African country will stage the show henceforth. Renamed Big Brother Naija, the show will have 12 housemates who will compete for the prize of N25 million and a brand new KIA Sorento car. Sponsored by PayPorte, the program will run for 78 days, starting 22 January 2017 with a two-hour, live, televised launch and end on 9 April 2017 with a two-hour, live, televised finale.

The Weird BBNaija All-Stars Parrot Come Alive Tonight!

By
When the Big Brother Naija All-Stars house first opened on July 23, the curious eyes of fans picked up on the parrot. It wasn’t just that it seemed out of place; it was also a little weird and didn’t match the decor. So the guessing game began with everyone wondering if it was just a decorative piece or if it held some significance that we had to pay attention to. Those who guessed that it had some relevance we must pay attention to were correct. A little secret you should know first - the parrot is an all-hearing one, and it will spill all the secrets it's heard at 9 pm today. It’s about to be pure mayhem, and we are here for it! For the past two weeks, the parrot has carefully listened to all the drama and gossip in the house, and it is time for the parrot to do what parrots know how to do best, gossip. Big Brother will bring the parrot to life for the first time today, Friday, August 4, at 9 pm, and you best believe the drama is about to go up a notch higher.
