The adaptation features Arese Ugwu as the executive director, BellaNaija Style‘s very own Isoken Ogiemwonyi as the Head of Costume Design and some of our favourite on-screen stars playing these characters we fell in love with.

These five main characters who make up the pillars that hold up The Smart Money Woman universe are going to be brought to life by Toni Tones, Ini Dima-Okojie, Osas Ighodaro Ajibade, Lala Akindoju and Ebenezer Eno who all took to instagram to introduce us to their individual characters.
