Watch Africa Magic Hausa, Igbo & Yoruba Abroad
A guide for Nigerians in the UK, USA, Canada and elsewhere who want Africa Magic Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba — and Yoruba Cinema — on the screen they already use.
The channels families ask for first
If you want to watch Africa Magic Hausa, Africa Magic Igbo and Africa Magic Yoruba from the UK, the USA, Canada or further away, you are looking for the language channels a lot of Nigerian homes still organise the evening around. Parents keep the film on. Children keep hearing Hausa, Igbo or Yoruba in the background. The names to look for are the ones already listed on nigeriaiptv.com: Africa Magic, Africa Magic Hausa, Africa Magic Igbo and Africa Magic Yoruba.
Hausa films, Igbo cinema and Yoruba Cinema
Africa Magic Hausa lines up with Hausa Films — the Kannywood-style stories many Arewa families still put on after dinner. Africa Magic Igbo lines up with Igbo Movies. Africa Magic Yoruba lines up with Yoruba Cinema, the shelf relatives often ask for by name. On the homepage those names are grouped with the rest of the Nollywood row and again under Yoruba, Hausa and Igbo, so you can see the family before anyone sets a screen up.
A mixed house can keep all three
Diaspora homes are often mixed. One person wants the Hausa film, someone else wants Igbo, and Sunday belongs to Yoruba. The same screen can hold Africa Magic Hausa, Africa Magic Igbo and Africa Magic Yoruba. The useful question is which of those names should be easy to open in the parlour, and which device that parlour already has.
From the UK, the USA, Canada and elsewhere
Abroad, the practical path is ordinary home internet and a screen you already own: a Smart TV, a Firestick, a phone, a tablet or a laptop. Households in London, Houston and Toronto use that same path. Short pages cover Nigerian TV in the UK, the USA and Canada if you want the local picture first. The idea is the same in Europe, the Gulf and Australia. Lagos broadcast times rarely match an evening in those cities, and every plan on the homepage includes 7-day catch-up, so a film can start when you are actually home. If the living-room box is a Firestick, the Firestick page walks through that setup in calm steps.
A quiet way to start
When you are ready, message WhatsApp on +44 7307 410512. Say your city, your device, and whether the house wants Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba or all three. The reply is a private setup for that screen. If you would like to try an evening film on your own Wi-Fi first, ask about a trial — the current window is confirmed on that chat, and the free-trial page explains how the ask works. Plans on the homepage start from $5/month, and every length includes the same channel list.
If Hausa is the easier read
This guide stays in English for family who read it that way. If Hausa is easier, the Hausa homepage explains Nigerian television from abroad in Hausa. Share this page with the English readers, and that one with everyone else.
What to read next
Two older guides sit beside this one: how to watch Nigerian TV abroad, and the Nollywood library for the diaspora. Everyday questions about devices and trials are on the FAQ. When you know the channel names you want, send a short note on WhatsApp, or look through the homepage first.
