THE BACHELOR

Chibuzor, a young man in his early 20s, as he navigates the pressures of love, relationships, and societal expectations in contemporary Nigeria. Despite his mother and sister’s relentless urging to settle down and start a family, Chibuzor remains hesitant, scarred by past romantic betrayals. From his university days, where he experiences heartbreak with Gloria, a seemingly perfect girlfriend who cheats on him, to his NYSC camp encounter with Miracle, a fleeting and passionate fling, Chibuzor’s journey is marked by emotional highs and lows. Each relationship—whether with Tosin, who chooses another man, or his friend Joshua’s own struggles with infidelity—deepens his skepticism about love. Yet, amidst the heartbreak, Chibuzor finds moments of connection and growth, culminating in a chance meeting with Lydia, introduced by his sister. As their chemistry blossoms, Chibuzor must confront his fears and decide if he’s ready to end his bachelor life for a future with Lydia. A heartfelt tale of love, trust, and self-discovery, *The Bachelor* explores the complexities of modern relationships and the courage it takes to open one’s heart again.
