“The Men’s Club” struck gold again with Efa Iwara and Adebukola Oladipupo as Tayo and Tiara, capturing young love’s emotional rollercoaster with refreshing honesty. Meanwhile, Genoveva Umeh and Chimezie Imo brought spiritual depth to romance in “Breath of Life,” proving that sometimes the quietest love stories speak the loudest.
