- In 1984, this BBC/NTA documentary on Nigeria was aired to international acclaim. It was written and presented by Onyeka Onwenu and is considered the definitive film on corruption in Nigeria It remains relevant in 2022.
The Nigerian Story we have to know, so we can build the Nigeria of our dreams. Learn your history from different perspective.
This is a beautiful work. A masterpiece. Still Apt. Brings nostalgia. I will always love Ms. Onyeka Onwenu.
Watching this my heart blead, that after 40yrs our leader has nothing to show up and is getting worst
It's very sad to know that most people in this documentary lived to never see the Nigeria of their dreams. Most have passed on without any changes to this sad story 😢
Chai! Chunue Achebe, our hero. Onyeka Owenu you've been a blessing to this generation 🙏 and you're still kicking it.
It's now 40yrs since this documentary was created and yet our situation have worsened. It's sad.
Watching this, really breaks my heart cos after 40years, it’s even terrible now. God bless you for this and I pray Nigeria will be great again
My love for you has multiple, and thanks for making this documentary. This is a good reminder for all Nigerians. No one else will give us the Nigeria we deserve but ourselves. Hopefully, one day, we can all wake up.
The name of the blind singer at 5:30 is called Kokoro.
This is some wonderful job.
It's shocking to see that nothing has changed....it has rather gotten worse. One wonders if the discovery of oil has been a bane to the Nation. It's unfortunate. Nigerians were not ready to handle the massive wealth that came with Oil...and the theft and corruption continues. But with the end of the oil era on the horizon, Nigeria will one day face the question of their continua existence headlong. Then, only then,....
Such an amazing documentary❤️
Nothing has changed
What is the problem of Nigeria?
Nigeria is supposed to be great by now but some people don't want this country to be great....
A people that has refused to learn, may God help us
this was beautiful to watch... soon to hit million views
That was when Inflation was gradually creeping in.
Thank you ma'am
And to think that 60 years plus, after independence, the story is still the same.
Wow! Onyeka Nwenu, a great legend, she witnessed how the corrupt politicians squandering the commonwealth the country
A beautiful recap of affairs in that era. My only grouse with this is why Fela was never mentioned or interviewed: that was a great oversight by both Onyeka and the producers, yet they used his music in the backdrop.
Same story till date, nothing have actually change. May God have mercy
🎬 1984 🌍🇳🇬❤️🖤💛💚 Daalu 2024
A Classic!
39:55"Food for thought and not food for our stomach " sad 😢
I'm sorry to say that in 2024, Nigeria is in a worst state. Our leaders and some citizens have refused to make the changes needed to move the country forward
The complete destruction and degradation and mass looting started around this time. The mass exodus to leave (Japa) Nigeria went into overdrive around 1983/84/85/86/87 and continues to this day. Nothing has changed.
She was so beautiful (still is)
Wow Onyeka was a dazzing beauty.A bombshell f a woman
Good thing to note from here is Abuja: thanks to the governments after this footage was done, the capital has become truly befitting of the plan and what Nigeria looked to be among other underdeveloped/3rd world nations. We can agree that in the least, that was money well spent.
This is highly educative. I love you ma'am.
Kudos to Dr Reuben Abati for mentioning this documentary on Arise News morning show.
I wonder what Onyeka has to say about her children's current predicament?
I actually came to watch this documentary because it was mentioned by arise news morning show and it's really heartbreaking seeing the glory of Nigeria going down the drain. Nigeria go better one day

Yeah
@@courtmylesmanuel1466 heartbreaking indeed. The more things change the more they remain the same or get worse. That's our irony in Nigeria.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
SAD 😢
Sadly nothing has changed in 2023. No wonder military coups have come back in fashion.
Things have gotten worst☹️
My question is after noticing all those calamity why didn't dey carry on with the revolution 😢
Sadly, contrary to his position of never leaving Nigeria, Prof. Achebe eventually had to move base to the USA
Lol chinua Achebe left eventually
43:20
😢
Interesting???😢
Yet someone calls himself SEUN KUTI And the Other WOLE SOYINKA ???
11:00 does any one know who the business man was ?
Bua's father, Isyaka Rabiu
@@pauljosephazi2433 thanks
Actually, it’s Nafiu Isiaka Rabiu, Abdulsamad (BUA)’s older brother. Their late father’s first born son
40 years later...same story!
No it is getting worst
