Yes, the sound track was the song "Eddie Quansa" by Peacocks International Highlife Band.

Meaning of d theme song if u can translate it.

Theme song was actually:
Eddie Kwansa bia o bia o x3
Izu ka mma na nneji o, bia o bia o

Eddie Kwansa was the name of a person. 'Eddie Kwansa bia o bia o' means Eddie Kwansa come o come o.
'Izu ka mma na nneji o bia o bia o' means It's good when blood brothers reason together, so come o, come o.

The song was sung by Dan Orji, Peacocks International Band.

In those days no one missed the New Masquerade because there was always light to watch it, even if it meant going to your neighbour's to do so. #Nostalgic.

By the way, you can watch some classic shows like Mirror In The Sun, New Village Headmaster, Cockcrow At Dawn and New Masquerade on NTA2 Channel 5's YouTube channel.

You forgot Ajiboye, Okoro Maduekwe and Akpena. Those great days when NEPA was NEPA and you had no need for generator once you could get yourself a black and white TV set. No worry, Nigeria go good again.

This is a video of the original Masquerade series (before New Masquerade). Here Christy Essien Igbokwe plays the role of Akpenor, Jegede's first wife.

She was replaced in the New Masquerade by Ramota. Christy Essien left the show to focus on her music career.
