Former Zora actor Blessing Lung’aho has landed the lead role in a new drama series alongside Celestine Gachuhi from the popular Selina show.
In the new show titled Kiu, Lung’aho will be known as Alex while Celestine will go by Alisha.
The two veteran thespians play a married couple looking for a child. However, this dream is cut short when Alisha’s sister Anita Wawuda (Diana) travels home from abroad.
According to the creators of the drama series, Kiu is a tale of secrets, betrayal, lies, and revenge all tied up in a captivating drama.
This engrossing show will air on Rembo TV and also on the StarTimes ON app. It is set to premiere on December 12, 2022, from Monday to Friday at 8 pm.
Kiu is directed and produced by Reuben Odanga, a renowned director in the Kenyan film industry.
