The streets of Ibadan stood still last weekend as the cast of the Showmax Original Wura, made a fiery entrance that marked the beginning of the thrilling final chapter.

In a symbolic gesture, the cast: Scarlet Gomez, Ego Ihenacho, Martha Ehinome, Lanre Adediwura and Ray Adeka, set a giant “WURA” text ablaze at a busy intersection in the heart of Ibadan, representing the tension and explosive drama awaiting fans this season. By choosing Ibadan for this explosive event, the creators honoured the massive fan base in the region while setting the tone for the season’s intense confrontations.

This spectacle not only captivated the city but underscored Showmax’s commitment to providing gripping narratives that resonate with audiences.

“At Showmax, our goal has always been to connect our customers to stories that reflect their lives, their struggles, and their triumphs”, said Arinola Shobande, Head of Marketing at Showmax Nigeria. “Wura is an example of great storytelling rooted in authenticity, and that’s why we brought this spectacle to Ibadan, one of the key hubs of Nigerian culture and a home to some of our loyal viewers,” she added.

This season finale of Wura promises even more twists and turns. From shocking revelations about Tumi’s past to deadly clashes with old adversaries, fans are in for a rollercoaster ride as Wura’s empire teeters on the edge of collapse.

Following the fiery stunt at Gate in Ibadan, fans were treated to an intimate Wura Season 3 Meet and Greet with cast members at the Domino’s Pizza store in Bodija, Ibadan. This allowed the passionate fan base in the city to meet their favourite stars, share their excitement, and take part in exclusive experiences tied to the show.
