I remember back then, whilst growing up in the days when we had limited television channels to watch, that we had to make do with whats available. I think it was Just NTA 10, NTA 2 channel 5, NTA 7, LTV8 and OGTV all of which were Government owned that used to operate on our airwaves. No DSTV and the only Satellite provider available was ABG.

These stations made us love watching TV with primetime programmes especially with foreign soap operas that took the airwaves. Some of these soaps/Telenovelas are the best ever and one can only reminiscence these soaps. The old folks would remember some, whilst some new folks would remember some of the new ones that have recently been aired .

Some of the soaps will be highlighted below

NO ONE BUT YOU (NTA 10)
THE RICH ALSO CRY
ISURA THE SLAVE GIRL
SECRET OF THE SAND
WILD ROSE Rosa Salvaje
LADY OF THE ROSE
WHEN YOU ARE MINE (CUANDO SEAS MIA)
THE GARDENERS DAUGHTER
CATALINA AND SEBASTIAN
SECOND CHANCE
Camila
SANTA BABRA
THE BOLD AND THE BEAUTIFUL
YOUNG AND RESTLESS
MARIA DE LOS ANGELES
La mujer el de janeiro
and many others. These are the few i can remember for now.

You can share ur experience on the ones you love the most

Santa Barbara ended a long time ago, the final scene was Julia telling Mason she was expected their second child. One thing about that soap was its good selection of soundtracks. But I gave up on soaps ages ago, you are happy one minute, next you end up disappointed! At least with telenovelas, the main couple have their happy ending!
My favorite telenovela is NO ONE BUT YOU, the second telenovela to air in Nigeria. I loved Antonio and Raquel very much and HATED Max for everything he tried to do to them.

My eternal,in the name of love,no greater love,

Hello everyone, please who remembers the title of one of the soaps aired on NTA in the early 2000s. I can't remember it. The character I remember is that of the slave girl/maid who was from a poor background and very shy. She then falls in love with a rich guy(I think the son or her master) who in turn falls for her too and gets this poor girl a mobile phone as a present so the will always keep in touch... her name is eena(don't know d spelling tho) and it didnt look like a Mexican soap.
This is all I remember,been trying so hard to remember the title. Pls any clues?? Ill appreciate.
Thank you
