As part of its diverse May launch slate in Kenya, African streamer Showmax has unveiled its first-ever Original docuseries in Kenya, Nilichoma, premiering on 28 May.
Featuring 10 different stories, Nlichoma will offer viewers an immersive emotional experience with a blend of personal narratives, interviews, archive photos and videos, re-enactments that shed light on the rise and fall, and ultimately, how they became the individuals they are today.
The 10-part docuseries features well-known personalities in Kenya who received an unexpected windfall, and then blew it all.
Some of the personalities to look out for include cricket icon Maurice Odumbe, comedian JB Masandaku, David Ogot, son to renowned author and politician Grace Ogot, former Samburu millionaire Gabriel Lengishili and more.
Nilichoma joins three more Kenyan Showmax Originals that have already premiered as the streamer officially relaunches in Kenya.
These include The Real Housewives of Nairobi Season 2, new dramedy from Philit Productions Untying Kantai, and new comedy drama series Big Girl Small World, from Nick Mutuma and Kevin Njue.
