Nigeria Provides Financial Support For The Liberation Struggle In Rhodesia (later Zimbabwe)

Footage of a press conference at which Brigadier Joseph Garba, Nigeria's Minister for External Affairs, presented a cheque to Senhor Joaquim Chissano, Mozambique's Foreign Minister as Nigeria's contribution towards financing the liberation struggle in Rhodesia (later Zimbabwe).
The press conference was held in Port Louis, Mauritius, where both men were attending a meeting of the Organisation of African Unity (OAU).
Garba was very critical of the two rival factions of the African National Council (ANC) led respectively by Bishop Abel Muzorewa, leader of the external African National Council and Mr. Joshua Nkomo, leader of the internal ANC.
