It’s available to Premium, Compact Plus and Compact bouquet subscribers who own a DStv Explora. If you haven’t yet got yourself an Explora, here’s what you’d be missing out on INVASION 1897:

Synopsis:
Based on the invasion of the Benin Kingdom by the British Empire in 1897, and the looting of priceless artefacts including the famous commemorative head and pendant of the ivory mask representing Queen Idia, mother of Esigie, the Oba of Benin who ruled from 1504 to 1550 (invasion1897movies.com)

Ovonramwen Nogbaisi!
I'm definitely watching...
Renting even.
If this will encourage people to make movies like this.
The invasion of Bini kingdom has always been an intriguing topic.
I hope a movie about Oba Akinsemoyin of Lagos comes up. Or Kosoko.
Or Ekumeku standoff of igbo land,( Anioma.)
Attahiru vs Lord Lugard.

Please more!
