A silent battle is brewing in homes across Nigeria. This battle isn't the conventional battle about money, women, sex, in-laws etc. This battle is a battle for who controls the living room.

Before this time, men were firmly in control of the happenings in their living room as they watched their favourite football teams slug it out in the English Premier League, Spanish La Liga and even the European Champions League.

These usually left the women - their wives- in limbo, often complaining that they did not understand the fun associated with twenty-two grown-up men chasing a football! They dared not say that they wanted to watch any other thing when their hubby's favourite team was playing a football match

The smart wives amongst them quickly aligned with their husbands, developing an interest in and following their favourite teams and even started watching the games with him. The rebellious ones would eat dinner alone and have no one to talk to till whenever their husbands decided to come home from the viewing centre.

The tide however changed with the introduction of romantic and melodramatic soap operas from the stables of Telemundo and now Zee world on DSTV and GOTV.

With strategic, primetime back-to-back programming especially on Zee world, the women finally had their pound of flesh. From soaps like The Heir which airs from 8 pm Nigerian time to Mehek to King of Hearts to the newest entrant Lady Luck, the women finally had some form of companionship as well as something to talk about.

And the men are beginning to complain.

Who do you think will win in this battle?
