When the trailer for season 6 of SGIT came out, I was one of the viewers that felt like there was no need for it and this was because the main thing everyone looked forward to since episode 1 season 1 of this series was to see Tiwa get comfortable in her own body and find the man of her dreams, and that was what eventually happened at the end of season 5,so when they announced that there was going to be a season 6,i just felt like,what else is left to be discussed? But to my surprise, this season turned out to be mind-blowing.It season forced a lot of conversations, on marriage, career, relationship even domestic violence. This season got every viewer talking at the end of each episode. We also saw each character grow. From Tiwa to Mide, Derin, Shalewa, Mohammed, Didi, Mummy Tiwa, even Aunty Dupe. The writer gave us an insight into each character’s life which was beautiful to watch and it makes this season much more interesting and engaging.
Mide&Tiwa
Everyone sees Mide as a loving romantic husband so most people felt they shouldn’t have a problem after marriage but it turns out that marriage doesn’t work that way. We saw Tiwa get pregnant, have a miscarriage. We also watched her deal with the trauma, the pain, bottled up her emotions, shut Mide out, which affected her marriage but Mide still tried to stick around and be there for her. We learnt a lot from what happened with Tiwa and Mide this season and how they handled it. Mide and Tiwa made us realize that there is no perfect home and home can only walk towards perfection if there is love, communication, understand, and also the consideration of the interest of each other. It got to a point where Mide had to slow things down and allow Tiwa to grieve and deal with her pains but at the same time he didn’t leave her to it completely, he tried to be there for her and also gave her reasonable amount of space to get over the incident. Tiwa also stood by Mide when he was having his own moment. She considered Mide, her home, and the company, and how much the absence of her support could affect those around her. This led to her ending her contract with ABC.
Shalewa& Mohammed / Shalewa& Kwame
Shalewa and Mohammed ‘s relationship was bound to have a problem right from the beginning. They both knew that at some point in time, their relationship was going to be put to test because they are from two different cultures, religions, and values but it was unfortunate that even before the real test came, Mohammed gave in into temptation. I like the fact that Shalewa knew she couldn’t deal with the cheating and walked away but we didn’t know that she was going to walk into a violent relationship with Kwame. Right from the moment Kwame raised his voice and held her wrist at the gallery, I just knew that he was a big NO🙅♀️. I was more furious when Shalewa started pleading with him🙆♀️, I expected her to walk away and allow him to apologize for hurting her over a small issue. I think Shalewa got into that relationship too soon and maybe used the relationship to get over Mohammed but the truth is, you don’t get over a man with another man, it is not possible. She should have taken time alone after Mohammed but I guess she was just desperate🤦♀️. Even a slap from Kwame still didn’t bring her back to her senses and sadly she sought advice from the wrong friend, Tito. When she ended things with Mohammed, everyone was so proud of the woman that Shalewa was becoming and before we knew it, our same Shalewa was the one that got shouted at and slapped and still remained in the relationship. Thank God she confronted him and gave him a piece of her mind and even threatened to ruin him if he tries it with any other lady. But then again, Shalewa should not have gone to his house to confront him, she should have asked him to meet in a restaurant, anywhere public, going to his house gives him an upper hand and he could have hurt her. He could be a psychopath and things could have gone wrong.
Aunty Dupe
It was so nice to see Aunty Dupe finally adopt a child. Aunty Dupe and the adoption process made us realize that adoption isn’t very easy in this country neither is it abroad and it was really good to see her finally get a son and know what it feels like to have a child
Iya Tiwa
Mummy Tiwa didn’t really do much this season but she was there for Tiwa during her miscarriage and she was there to frustrate Shalewa and also get frustrated by Wosilat. It was good to see her find a new hobby, that is, the YouTube channel she started toward the end of the season. I enjoyed the scene where Wosilat told her that she made a dress that looked like a masquerade attire for her( Iya Tiwa) and she told her (Wosilat) to wear it 😂and start dancing and singing, that scene was hilarious.🤣
Didi
From season 5, I wanted more development on Didi because from season 1 we saw Didi go out with different men and just live her life but in this season, she finds a good man and settles with him. I like the fact that they spoke on single parents and their relationship, it was good to see Didi settled and happy.
Wosilat
Wosilat did jamb but jamb jam her, she even did Fashion designing but still didn’t do well with him. We even need to applaud Iya Tiwa’s patience with Wosilat 😂
Overall, this season was a good one, they proved me wrong and proved to us that there is more to SGIT than we assumed and they reminded us that we are not the writer. I would definitely be watching if the producers decide to bring in season 7
But what If, just what if, instead of a season 7, a new series is created and is centered on Shalewa, her career, relationship, and growth. It could be like a spin-off from SGIT and maybe we get to see other characters from SGIT in the new series once in a while; because I feel everyone has been settled, Tiwa got pregnant, the company is going well, Didi got engaged, Aunty Dupe got a son, Iya Tiwa found something to do, I feel, apart from Wosilat, only Shalewa has not been settled, her career, relationship, and even friendship, I don’t want to believe that Shalewa would end up with a friend like Tito🙄. I feel there is still room for more growth for Shalewa. Put down your comments and let me know what you think?
What do you think about the whole Season?
Was it a Hit👍 or a Miss 👎for you?
Do you think they should do something on Shalewa or just release a season 7 or not🙅♀️?
