It is well known that Nigeria has the largest population in Africa, and the largest economy in West Africa; it is fairly well known that Nigeria’s military has been intervening in hot spots in the region; it is perhaps even less known that Nigerian movies are now, all over Africa, what bollywood movies were in Nigeria when I was growing up in the 80s. Add all these together you get a Black Superpower. Or so says the BBC in this documentary. There is a podcast on the page. you can also listen to it online.

    good listen. thanks. Nigeria needs to make sure it gets plenty back from helping these countries, be it in the form of contracts or what have you. It shouldn’t be just for show.
