It's interesting how the documentary links Buhari's rise with the overthrow of the Shagari government without much critique of the political aftermath.

I'm not convinced the film fully captures internal military debates before the coup; seems a bit one-sided to me.

Maybe next time such a documentary could include interviews with lower-ranking officers to add more perspective on his leadership style.
