The critically acclaimed telenovela “Wura” has officially transitioned into a high-stakes new era. While fans are currently buzzing about the intense plot twists, many are also adjusting to a major shift: the series has moved from Showmax to Africa Magic for its fourth season, which premiered on March 30, 2026.
In the current arc, Scarlet Gomez continues to deliver a masterclass in villainy, but with a new, desperate edge that makes her character, Wura Amoo-Adeleke, more dangerous than ever.
The “Backed Into a Corner” Arc
In Season 4, the “untouchable” gold-mining magnate is facing a world closing in on her:
- The Ruthless Survivalist: Scarlet Gomez has described Wura in these latest episodes as “more mobile and dangerous.” Because she is on the verge of losing her empire and her family, she has shed any remaining restraint.
- The Vulnerability Shift: For the first time, viewers are seeing Wura grapple with internal health issues and the emotional fallout of discovering that Tumininu (Tumi) is actually her biological daughter.
- The Empire in Peril: As her long-buried secrets surface, Wura is fighting a two-front war against external business enemies and internal family betrayals, particularly within the Adeleke dynasty.
Major Cast Changes
Beyond the plot, the conversation online has been dominated by a significant “re-skinning” of the cast for the new season:
- New Tumi: Sharon Rotimi has stepped into the pivotal role of Tumininu Kuti, replacing Martha Ehinome.
- New Cobra: Korede Soyinka has taken over the role of Olumide “Cobra” Kuti from Lanre Adediwura.
- New Eve: The character of Eve Adeleke is now portrayed by Mara Madi.
Where to Watch
While Seasons 1 through 3 (which concluded on April 15, 2025) remain available for binge-watching on Showmax, the new episodes of Season 4 are airing exclusively on Africa Magic Showcase.
