What happens when a moment of desperation collides with a secret that should have stayed buried? That’s the heart-pounding question at the centre of The Split, a gripping new drama series premiering this New Year’s Day on Africa Magic Showcase.
Set in the high-stakes world of banking, The Split follows three ordinary employees pushed into an extraordinary crime. Abdul, Harriet, and Tola are each fighting private battles — debt, heartbreak, dreams deferred — until a dormant account becomes the answer to their prayers or the beginning of a nightmare. The account’s owner is long dead. No activity for years. No family in sight. It looks like the perfect opportunity until it isn’t!
Just when they think they’ve pulled off the ultimate heist, a mysterious young man named Ezekiel walks into the bank claiming the money as his late father’s. He has questions and the kind of confidence only someone with damning information can carry. Suddenly, the trio’s “victimless” crime becomes a ticking time bomb.
As they scramble to cover their tracks, Ezekiel refuses to let go. His presence grows menacing. His motives become harder to read. And soon, the bankers aren’t just fighting for their careers — they’re fighting for their lives and the safety of everyone they love.
Layered with emotional tension, moral conflict, and escalating danger, The Split digs deep into how far people will go when fear, greed, and guilt take over. Every episode peels back another layer, revealing shocking truths, unexpected alliances, and the haunting consequences of a single reckless choice.
Get ready for a drama-packed thrill ride that keeps you guessing until the very last moment. Catch the premiere of The Split on 1 January at 20:30 WAT on Africa Magic Showcase.
