MTV Shuga, known by many as Shuga, is a television drama series that was first aired in November 2009 on MTV Base as part of an initiative dubbed MTV Staying Alive Ignitel.
Its first two seasons was commissioned by MTV Networks Africa in association with The MTV Staying Alive foundation, PEPFAR and the Kenyan government as part of a multimedia campaign to spread the message about responsible sexual behaviour and tolerance.
It later became a hit and was aired in 40 different African countries, before it was aired internationally in over 70 television stations.
