One of the good nigerians doing us proud. Not the fraudsters, drug peddlers and ssex workers that drags our reputation to the mud.

A terrible corruption of the phrase "beast of no nation" which Fela used to describe the UN and it's insincere dealing with Africa, other 3rd world countries and the African despots and dictatorships of the time. I'd have pictured that title used to illustray illustrate the systematic murder of many African freedom activists and leaders by western nations

The movie does look good and intriguing, before this film comes out you guys should check out the movie mad dog very good movie on the life of child soldiers in Africa

And why is that , that movies looks very good and we'll put together.

Trust me most Yoruba people are too engrossed in their personal hustle to care about who made the movie.

Sadly, a movie based on activities involving Nigeria...about Nigeria's history...and based on a book by a Nigerian...was shot in GHANA!

No suitable location in Nigeria?

I weep!

The novel and Song was based on Happenings in Nigeria about oppressions and all...
The only modification is that he used a child soldier which is one of the things happening now as regards terrorism..

Sorry bro. But the story is only a fictional disguise of the Boy soldiers of Biafra. Uzodinma Iweala was only paying a deep tribute to all the young Igbos who fought and sometimes died i and died in that wicked war. Just like Chimamanda Adichie did with Half of A Yellow Sun. These young brilliant Igbo writers are keeping the history of their heritage on the front burner. God bless them.

The mother raised him well so does his father and he is doing them and all of Nigeria proud including the hollow heads calling his mum all sorts of name because she decided to lend an almost dead country some self service. Funny enough most of those who call Iwealla Ngozi names can never achieve the feat his last child already achieved 10 years ago before they die. Thumbs up boy.
