Seven Doors takes viewers on a journey through 18th and 19th-century Nigeria. The story centres on a unique royal marriage between a Yoruba King and his beloved Igbo queen. Their peaceful reign, built on mutual respect and understanding, soon faces unprecedented challenges.

Furthermore, the arrival of an ambitious Hausa investor disrupts the kingdom’s harmony. Subsequently, his modern business plans clash with deep-rooted traditions. This creates ripples across the royal household.

Meanwhile, the once-peaceful palace transforms into a battleground of conflicting interests and cultural values.

Additionally, the series showcases Nigeria’s cultural diversity through its stellar cast. Notably, veteran actors Chioma Akpotha, Femi Adebayo, and Adebayo Salami bring their characters to life.

What’s more, talented performers like Ronke Oshodi, Muyiwa Ademola, and Jide Kosoko add depth to the narrative.

Finally, the exceptional performances of Aisha Lawal, Yinka Quadri, and Gabriel Afolayan help weave this complex tale of love, power, and tradition.
