Ajogu is gearing up for its Maiden Dance, and trust me, it’s no ordinary village event. Think The Bachelor, but with traditional dancing, royal politics, and a much higher chance of family drama. The stakes? The kingdom’s most eligible bachelor, Prince Ameh, is finally ready to pick a wife. For a while now, the prince has been under intense pressure to pick someone who checks all the right boxes for his family, the council of chiefs, and the entire kingdom.
So who stands the best chance of winning his heart? Let’s dive into the top four contenders in this tangled love quadrangle.
Ajifa
Ajifa is the daughter of Chief Alewo and the royal family’s top pick for “queen-to-be.” Why? She’s noble, comes from a politically influential family, and has the queen’s backing. On paper, she’s perfect, but Ajifa had a thing for the prince’s late best friend, Akoji. Actually, scratch that—she’s not just in love; she’s pregnant. Yup, Ajifa is secretly carrying Akoji’s baby, and with Akoji out of the picture (RIP), her dad has made it clear that marrying the prince is her only option.
Her father is already pulling strings to hide her pregnancy and secure the crown for his family. But can she keep her secret under wraps long enough to win Prince Ameh’s heart? Or will this royal mess unravel before she even gets a chance?
Chief Ameleko’s Daughter
For a while, Chief Ameleko had given up on his daughter marrying Prince Ameh. Instead, he went all-in on Omera, pushing his daughter to build a connection with him instead. But now that the prince is officially wife-hunting, Ameleko is reevaluating his options. His daughter is stepping back into the spotlight as a strong contender. With her father’s renewed interest in the royal marriage lottery, could she surprise everyone and win the prince’s favour? Stranger things have happened in Ajogu.
Ojoma
As Ajifa’s younger sibling, she’s spent her life in the shadow of her sister’s “perfection", but Ojoma isn’t about to let Ajifa take all the glory. She’s determined to snag the prince, even if it means going head-to-head with her own family. Her playbook is… let’s just say, unconventional. She’s tried love charms (yikes), sabotage, seduction, and even begging the queen for help. Unfortunately, none of it has worked so far. To make matters worse, her father has banned her from participating in the Maiden Dance. But knowing Ojoma, she’s not about to let a little thing like parental authority stop her. If she somehow sneaks her way into the competition, you can bet she’ll go down swinging—or dancing.

Iyoma
Let’s get real, Iyoma isn’t a maiden, but she’s the only one who truly holds Prince Ameh’s heart. Even after their painful breakup, it’s clear the prince hasn’t moved on. And, honestly, neither has Iyoma. She’s hurt, guarded, and reluctant to step into the chaos of royal life. Will she set aside her fears and fight for the man she loves? Or will she sit this one out and let her soulmate slip through her fingers? Iyoma is the wildcard here. If she decides to show up at the Maiden Dance, it’s game over for the other contenders. But that’s a big if.
Who will win Prince Ameh’s heart? Will it be Ajifa with her secret baggage? Ojoma with her relentless scheming? Chief Ameleko’s daughter? Or Iyoma, the prince’s one true love? Ajogu is about to explode with drama, secrets, and enough romance to keep us glued to our screens. Don’t miss Omera, every weekday at 20:00 WAT on Africa Magic Showcase. It’s about to get real.
