EXCLUSIVE: First look at BET’s new telenovela ‘Isono’

After a few bumps in the road, the highly anticipated first BET Africa original telenovela Isono‘s set date has been confirmed.

Following an announcement by BET Africa and Clive Morris Production (CMP) to temporarily suspend production on the Isono set due to Covid-19 in July. At the time the production said the safety and health of the Isono cast and crew come first.
