Part 1 of The 70's Series
In this review of the Nollywood film "'76", we discover (to no ones surprise) that Rita Dominic is one of the greatest actresses of her generation, that geriatrics are infiltrating our ranks and, that Murtala Muhammed was not a communist. There's also some other stuff about the influence of military wives in national politics and the unheralded impact of radical ideas in 1970’s Nigeria (more on this soon..)
