The Unforgettable Day General Murtala Ramat Muhammed Was Assassinated in Lagos

The Unforgettable Day General Murtala Ramat Muhammed Was Assassinated in Lagos

Friday, February 13, 1976 has remained an unforgettable day in the political history of Nigeria and in my memory. It is over 40 years ago, but the most tragic incident of that fateful day was the assassination of General Murtala Ramat Muhammed in one of the bloodiest coups in Nigeria since the first coup executed by the late Major Kaduna Nzeogwu on January 15, 1966.

'76 is the Best Nigerian Film in Cinematography

76, a Nigerian historical period drama directed by multiple award winning Nigerian filmmaker, Izu Ojukwu who is called the Steven Spielberg of Nigeria is rated the best Nigerian film for outstanding achievement in cinematography.
 He shot the film on Super 16mm and it is one of the few films in Nigeria where more than 95% of the movies are videos in the popular Nollywood genre.

Synopsis:
Set six years after the civil war, a young officer from the Middle Belt gets into a romantic relationship with an O-level student from the South-eastern region. However, their relationship is strained by constant military postings. The soldier gets accused of being involved in the 1976 unsuccessful military coup and assassination of General Murtala Muhammed, and the heavily pregnant wife, gets entangled in an emotional dilemma.

The historical account in '76 went through a seven-month approval period at the Nigerian Military before filming started. The film which is set in the '70s was shot in Ibadan, Oyo.

'76 premiered at the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival.

EDUCATION AND THE THREATS TO NIGERIA’S INTERNAL SECURITY

By The Honourable Minister of Interior of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Lieutenant General (Rtd) Abdulrahman Bello Dambazau CFR PhD at the 2016 Annual Lecture of Barewa Old Boys Association on 8th October, 2016 in Abuja, Nigeria.

INTRODUCTION

1.​It gives me great pleasure to address my childhood constituency, the Barewa Old Boys Association.   It is a singular honour indeed to be invited to deliver the 2016 Annual Lecture.  This lecture is long rooted in a tradition within which many eminent alumni of Nigeria’s greatest secondary school have addressed this Association earlier.   Indeed, I come here with a sense of humility for the honour accorded my modest accomplishments in the Army, my contributions to academics both during my military service and after retirement, and now in the public service, where I am serving as the Minister of Interior, a trust given to me by His Excellency, Muhammadu Buhari, President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Federal Republic of Nigeria. As a product of the prestigious Balewa Collage, I am privileged to be counted as one of the ubiquitous ambassadors of the College under the aegis of Barewa Old Boys Association.

 Is it not an international embarrassment that there is no single film commission in Nigeria? Not a single film treaty with any country. And the so called stakeholders in the Nollywood and Kannywood are quick to brag about being the second largest producer of movies in the world, making 1000 movies every year; they must have included home videos of their "Owambe" parties, birthdays and weddings.

President Muhammadu Buhari and the Raised Fist Salute

Why does President Muhammadu Buhari like the clenched raised fist salute?
It is like his political symbol which he used during his presidential campaign for the 2015 presidential election and he used it again at his swearing in ceremony on May 29, 2015.
