Nollywood darlings, Richard Mofe Damijo and Ego Boyo grabbed headlines when they starred in the late Amaka Igwe’s Tv series ‘Checkmate’ which revolutionized Nigerian soap-operas . The duo were a delight to behold
Decades after the ‘Checkmate’ era the Nollywood veterans are set to reunite in Richard Mofe Damijo’s new TV drama ‘ The Mr X Family Show’.
Recall that RMD had made the exciting announcement sometime in 2017.
“My journey with Ego Boyo @officialegoboyo started nearly 30 years ago, our first encounter being on the production of CHECKMATE when my dear friend Amaka Igwe pulled me in as the villain Segun Kadiri on the highly coveted TV series,” RMD wrote on Instagram on Monday.
“One of the most remarkable things about Ego is that despite the fact that she is born with a silver spoon into the family of the highly respected late Justice Nnamani she was super disciplined (she still is), very humble and extremely committed.
“Our status as Nigerian TV sweethearts rose with the movie VIOLATED as ‘Tega’ and ‘Peggy’ became the toast of Violated fans. Since then Ego has gone ahead to becoming wife, mother, accomplished business woman and the president of International Women’s Society.
“Over 25 years later Tega and Peggy are back together again on my new TV “DramCom” The Mr X Family Show. I can only hope that getting back together again on TV will tickle fans of Ann Hathrope and Segun Kadiri and the fans of Tega and Peggy who have been craving to have them grace their TV screens again” he revealed on his Instagram page.
