A chronicle of colonial life in Africa compiled from the memories of the people who worked there. 5: The Wind of Change
' When I first went out to Nigeria, there was no thought in anybody's mind that independence was to come within our lifetime.'
Harold Macmillan 's Wind of Change" speech in the early 1960s was received pretty cynically by the officers in the field; it was scarcely a prophetic utterance; it was something that we ourselves had realised for many years. We'd had to go through all the agony of rioting and a State of Emergency the year before.'
The history of British rule in Africa is a short one. It began and ended almost within the span of a man's lifetime. In the last programme in the series, Charles Allen talks to the men who handed back the reins of power they had held for such a brief period.
