| Summary: | "Thunderbolt is woven around Ngozi, a young elegant Igbo lady, and Yinka, a young man of Yoruba origin, who meet and fall in love during the National Youth Service. Their eventual marriage, against folk wisdom, soon develops problems fueled by rumors of extra-marital affairs which destroy trust between a devoted Ngozi and a jealous Yinka. In the ensuing drama Ngozi is laced with 'Magun', the mysterious and fatal chastity control (Magun) which will make her sexual victim die instantly after sexual intercourse."--From website. |
