Back then, on black and white television. Where with u screw the buttons to locate the channels on VHF before carefully and skillfully turning ur UHF button as the case may be. Although u have to wait till 4pm to be greeted by some rainbow-like lining on ur screen for @ least 30 mins. Followed by the then very regarded national athem before an array of programmes. (It has tayyyed) My operas used to be: -Village Head master -Cock crow at dawn -Mirror in the sun -Tales by moon light -The new masquerades -Pot of life not forgetting to join FRANK OLIZEH later RUTH BENE MARSHAL OPIA on news line on sundays by 9pm... It has really tayyyed... 1 Like |

The Rich Also Cry was a masterpiece. But as a novelist I bow to the artistic profundity that Rebacca came with. Am surprised nobody is mentioning Rebacca. It was shown in Jos television between 2006 and 2007. Was a corper there then. |

Passions!!!!!!! Theme Song by Jane French!!!! I would hold the hand of the one who could lead me places And kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet And I would fly on a wings of a bird I knew could take me highest Breathe in, breathe out You keep me alive You are the fire burning inside Breathe in breathe out You keep me alive You are my fire, my passions for life The soap opera put in trouble oooo, one night i heard the song in my sleep, n i got up from the bed n i didn't look down what i heard was a sound of a broken plate... Mumsie show me her true colours that night!!!! |

@Op has created a topic that has definitely kept the younger ones out, too bad. I still remember most of these programmes like they were yesterday. They held little minds like me then spell bound. But those any one remember, especially if you grew up in Northern Nigeria, 'Magana Ja Riche ' (hope I spelt it right)? It's a series of a bird that tells a story to a man. If I recall correctly too, it won National honours back then. Man, those were the good old days 2 Likes |

I remember the day they showed the concluding episode of Cuando Seas Mia, the whole school was like a graveyard and when Diego and Paloma finally got married, you would have thought Nigeria had won the World Cup, so much hugging and backslapping. Some boys even declared booze. FOREIGN Rich Also Cry Secrets Of The Sand (Ruth and Racquel) Wild Rose Lady Of The Rose Passions (especially Luis and Sheridan) Jake & The Fat Man Never really liked Another Life, Bold and The Beautiful, Dallas and others like that. NIGERIAN Ripples C.O.C.K Crow At Dawn Behind The Clouds (Zack Amata a.k.a Papa Nosa; proper stone cold man) Fortune Palace (launched Funmilola Aofiyebi) New Masquerade Village Headmaster Things Fall Apart Willy Willy (Scariest S.O.B of that era) Bassey & Company (Ken Saro Wiwa) Men!!! Those were indeed the golden days, feel kinda sorry for my unborn kids that they missed such innocent times. 1 Like |

Sweet memories... Why can't NTA copy some of the old tv programs & soaps into DVDs to sell? I'm sure they'll make a lot of money which can be used to provide better broadcasting services? Especially the local programs? I know some of our senior citizens will have a nice time watching them again. I know my mum wouldn't mind! Today, even stv & co are better stations than NTA. Why is it that anything the government owns hardly improves? Rather, they tend to deteriorate overtime? 1 Like |
