REALITY TV star Nande Ramncwana thinks the Bae Beyond Borders experiment was a success.
This after the reality dating TV show brought four South African women and 12 Nigerian men together to date and hopefully find love.
The four ladies, Nande, Zezethu Mniki, Malibongwe Gumede and Vuvu Maseti dated the 12 men and then chose eight. They continued to date those eight men and eventually chose their top four.
They got into relationships with the four men, however, after the show ended, three of the four couples broke up except for Nande (24) and her boyfriend, Daniel Christian (27).

Viewers were convinced the experiment was a flop, but Nande begs to differ.
“The experience was such a lovely journey for me, especially because everything was well taken care of. The Showmax team took care of us, props to them. It felt like I’m on vacation and finding love at the same time,” said Nande.
However, finding love wasn’t as easy as it looked on the show.
Nande said: “It was difficult though because we didn’t have time to get to know people. Emotions were involved and feelings were there, but it wasn’t easy."
She added:
Nande said she and Daniel are doing great.
“Daniel C and I are taking things bit by bit. We plan to see each other soon. He’s busy abroad, I’m also busy here. At first, I had fears about being in a long-distance relationship. But the assurance from Daniel and communication made me at ease," she said.
The reality TV star said she also doesn’t mind that people are calling them Jollofinas, a term usually used for women who date Nigerian men.
“I'm carrying this name with pride because a Nigerian man makes me happy. I call myself a certified Jollofina online because I'm proud of it,” said Nande.
