All you Nigerian history buffs out there. This video is unmissable. This video is a brilliant journey through Nigeria\'s post-Independence history from 1960 till today.

Al-Jazeera did a wonderful job here of chronicling Nigeria\'s history in videos and interviews. It also features great feature length interviews with people like Wole Soyinka and Ibrahim Babangida, and video footage of Nigeria's past leaders like Ironsi, Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu, General Yakubu Gowon, Phillip Effiong, Olusegin Obasanjo, and footage from the 1966 pogroms and civil war.

*Warning – there are some harrowing scenes of dying/suffering during Biafra.*
