  1. Good Day Sir. Please how can i contact you directly? I wish to use your movie in an event for my department. I’m the President of Theatre and Film Studies at NNAMDI AZIKIWE UNIVERSITY, AWKA. Please it’s pertinent I speak to you sir.

  2. Good work but I would have be more happy if the story started when igbos were killed in north in 1943 and 1953 for no reason, thousands of them were killed, properties were burnt, money stolen, what was their crime ? Starting the story from 1966 hides a lot of atrocities committed against igbos but thank you guys for the great work…

  3. Mr Tolulope or whatever Yoruba name you bear. If you can’t tell a true story, do not tell it. Do not piss on the Igbo history with your useless narrative you drug infested waste.

  4. This could have been a turning point. Ojukwu could have heeded the advice of Ifeajuna. History could have been different. Ifeajuna and Nzeogu are 2 soldiers that would have my respect till death. They are the bravest of the brave men Nigeria ever produced.
    Ojukwu himself fled. He'd never be any where near the ranks of Ifeajuna and Nzeogu in my books.

  5. A Yoruba man telling this story… It's fine but I will like to see this story from motherland.. we want to know more.. mazi Nnamdi Kanu said few but we want to know more and more and more… The youths of Biafraland are hungry for our history..
