There, in one of his lectures, Wachuku provoked national controversy when he declared Lagos a "no-man's land" – meaning that it was an all-Nigerian city – wherein all Nigerians were entitled to equal rights. Among other responsibilities, Jaja Wachuku was Principal Secretary of the Igbo State Union from 1948 to 1952.

sarrki: It is very unfortunate you knew very little about the history of Lagos. Sometimes I become very flabbergasted as certain loudmouths talk about Lagos as Yari.ba forgetting there was a time Yari.ba was not mentioned in the same sentence with Lagos. 5 Likes |
