The latest episode of The Real Housewives of Lagos, reveals gbas-gbos in all ramifications. Initially commencing on a peaceful note with Chioma orchestrating a ladies’ getaway, the episode predictably veers into heightened drama, marked by escalating physical altercations that are becoming somewhat customary.
Iyabo’s demeanor attracts scrutiny as her condescension reaches new heights in handling situations. While orchestrating an apology from Mariam to Chioma, which Mariam obliges and carries out, Iyabo abruptly terminates the discussion when Mariam requests a reciprocal apology, citing Chioma’s reluctance.
Tania, on the other hand, becomes the target of numerous epithets in this episode, all seemingly fitting given the circumstances. The irony is palpable as she conveniently experiences memory loss when prompted to recount the conflict between Mariam and Chioma, despite being a firsthand witness in the midst of the altercation.
The episode’s highlight is an epic confrontation, featuring Iyabo, who perceives herself as the matriarch of the housewives due to her seniority, expressing indignation over perceived disrespect from Laura. Faith Morey promptly emerges as Laura’s defender against Iyabo, displaying an unexpected readiness to confront Iyabo when she made a move to attack pregnant Laura.
The overarching theme of affluence interwoven with drama takes a disconcerting turn, with the escalation of physical confrontations among these housewives. It’s unsettling how these affluent women go about with drama at their heels and now they are becoming increasingly physical. Very unsettling!
The anticipation for the next episode is palpable, particularly as Faith Morey appears poised to serve Tania a substantial dose of gbas-gbos.
