Why Africa Magic's "Battleground" is in a league of its own

“Battleground,” a family drama that traffics in relationships, betrayals, infidelity, politics and romance, aired its 100th episode on Friday, September 15, 2017.

It is woven around your typical Nigerian story - a wealthy man cheats on his wife, secretly marries his side chick, has kids with both women, and following a set of events, his two worlds suddenly collide.

With almost every character on the show having their flaws and complexities, ranging from Chief Badmus, Adaora, Cissy and almost every other person, the story draws you in and gets a hold of your emotions.

This is apparent in the taking of sides by the viewers, as we have had factions on social media such as TeamAdaora, TeamCissy and the team of the moment, TeamTenka; the team insistent on fueling chemistry and love between Teni and Emeka. Long story cut short, BattleGround is relatable.
