Political scheming, betrayal, and bloodshed marked the premiere of Covenant Ββ and the fans loved every bit of it. From the intersections of politics and human dynamics, to so much more, the first episode of Covenant had fans on the edge of their seats β and in the end, everyone wanted more.
Here are some of the most memorable reactions from the Twitterverse!
First, the fan base
Right from the start, the fans knew to fully create a memorable experience with this show, and in order to do this, it was pertinent they built a network of fellow fans. Just like they did for Venge and Dilemma, Africa Magic viewers immediately got right to building that community for Covenant. #CovenantHive anyone?
The return of the heavyweights
While the fan base grew in the background, it was time to enjoy what Covenant had to offer. One thing that didnβt escape the keen observation of everyone who was glued to their screens was the star-studded cast on the show. Anyone who is familiar with Nollywood greats will definitely marvel at Covenantβs star cast. From Antar Laniyan, to Clarion Chukwura, Funso Adeolu, and Shaffy Bello, it was such a delight to see these veterans gracing our screens once again.
Vawulence central
As the show progressed, it soon dawned on everyone that this show is βRated 18β for a reason. Only one episode in and we already have two bodies in the ground! Safe to say; the Ijamakindes clearly have no patience with perceived threats. The moment they sense even a hint of it, they summarily do what needs to be done.
Despite seeing bodies dropping, some fans still found time for what really mattered β looking out for eye-candy, and luckily, Covenant delivered.
Hey, Rihanna *did* say weβd find love in a hopeless place!
Finally, the verdict!
