HERE IT COMES, SHUGA 2 WITH TWICE THE DRAMA !
After the International AIDS Conference in Vienna, Austria last week, the officials behind the gripping three-part drama, Shuga gave it a new lease of life.
On Tuesday, July 20, a panel of MTV, Pepfar and Unicef officials heard that in Kenya, where the three part series was filmed, an astounding 64% of young people 15-24 were aware of the campaign and 60% saw it and remembered it.
This lead to increased intentions to take an HIV test decreased intentions to be in a concurrent relationship and increased positive attitudes relating to HIV stigma. More importantly, over 90% of the young people in Kenya viewer group said the show had an effect on their thinking.
What could the big shots do but declare that a sequel to Shuga be shot. Also at the conference were two of the actors in the MTV dara series, Lupita Nyongo and Nicholas Mutuma, both of whom played lead roles as Ayira and Leo respectively.
Shuga is a no hold bared drama about the lives of a group of students in Nairobi featuring their of sex, ambition, hopes and fears; will see it given a new life line.
However with the return of Shuga 2, will see some actors dropped as their characters die and others take on a new lease of life.

the show suga is the bestest except for one thing....NICHOLAS MUNENE....seriously of all the poeple its him. i think before poeple are given roles .... producers should do a lil background checkup on them. NICHOLAS the biggest womaniser in USIU is dfntly nt some1 ppl can look up to. other than his looks which help him with his real character of being such a man whore ...he has nothing going on...kenyans don't be decieved
ReplyDeletehaha i have herd gossip about celebrity but not hot juicy gossip like the one about Nicholas munene forcing his long time girlfriend winner joram to abort thier child so that it won't affect his career. You should ask God and your almost born child for forgiveness
ReplyDeleteleave Nene alone, he's learning his lessons along the way and is a major inspiration to many. Besides I'm sure your not perfect either!!!
