Honey and Spice

Bolu Babalola · 2022

A campus radio host who warns women off bad men is caught kissing one, and fakes a relationship to save face.

Kiki hosts a relationship show on her university radio station and has built a reputation on warning other Black women off bad men, which becomes awkward when she is filmed kissing one. The fix is a fake relationship. Babalola writes British Nigerian campus life with real specificity and a great ear for banter, and the romance earns its turn because both people are allowed to be wrong about themselves.
