Additional Info:
Nigeria became an independent country in 1960. In 1967 it was torn apart by civil war. Between these two events a spirit of great hope prevailed through the land. Give Me A Riddle is about this golden age, seen through the eyes of Roger Landrum who, with David Schickele, returned to their host country after their Peace Corps service as teachers at the University of Nigeria, where they are welcomed as family by the villagers, university students, and friends, revealing a time capsule of a Nigeria and a Peace Corps in the rambunctious bloom of youth.
With Paul Eyam Nzie Okpokam, Gabriel Ogar, and Manze Ejiogu.
