A Fresh Take on Faith, Friendship, and Fine Men

Set in a cozy apartment where the scent of jollof rice and the aroma of drama fill the air, Heart Tugs introduces us to Joy and Sunshine—two best friends navigating life, loyalty, and love.

Joy, played by the ever-charismatic Oluchi Nwabuzor, is a prayer warrior whose unwavering faith in God’s plan often comes at the expense of taking practical steps. She’s unemployed but spiritually booked and busy. Living rent-free in her best friend’s home, she spends her days interceding, fasting, and dreaming of a future only God can reveal.

Sunshine, brought to life by the stunning and multi-talented Aishat Mohammed, is the total opposite—hard-working, independent, and grounded in the realities of adulting. She owns the apartment Joy lives in and juggles running her business while maintaining her grace under pressure.

Their peaceful life takes a sharp left turn when a new tenant, Kenny, enters the picture.

Enter Clinton Joshua Ezewele—And We All Lose Focus

Yes, you read that right.

Clinton Joshua Ezewele, Nollywood’s rising heartthrob, is serving looks, charm, and layered performance as Kenny, the new tenant who just happens to be wealthy, respectful, and single. His on-screen presence is electric, but it’s the chemistry he shares with both leading ladies that has fans replaying scenes and reanalyzing glances.

The moment Kenny steps into their lives, Joy gets a “word” from God—this is her husband. But is it divine revelation or wishful thinking? Because it’s not long before Sunshine also catches Kenny’s eye, and the tension is enough to make even the most prayerful viewer gasp.

The emotional tug-of-war begins: loyalty vs. love, friendship vs. feelings, and faith vs. frustration.
