“Gidi Culture” is a representative of the Nigerian Youth, and draws from many of their experiences. The show follows several young people from different walks of life as they relate to each other under various climates of prosperity and privation often associated with life in Gidi (Nigeria).
The show chronicles the lives of young people living in Lagos are showcased. See these youth interact in their daily lives—at work, prowling the clubs, during dramatic and key events, and through more personal and cultural issues and encounters.
The show’s protagonist, Halima Dan-Ladi Adebayo (Toni Tones), is a naïve upper class Nigerian who is in a graduate school abroad. When a critical accident occurs in her New York City apartment, Halima’s divorced Mother, Mariam Dan-Ladi, coerces her daughter to return to Nigeria indefinitely and attend the Lagos Business School. Life in Gidi exposes Halima to characters and practices that she once ignored and often never knew existed.
Will she ultimately succeed in this challenge of familiarizing herself with Gidi Culture and come to terms with her new reality? Or will she plummet into bad company and fall prey to the enmity amassed by some of Nigeria’s frustrated youth? Only time will tell as life unfolds in “Gidi Culture.”
