The Abia Prince ( Jaja Wachuku)that Proclaimed Lagos Is No Mans Land - Photo by sarrki(m): 2:49pm On May 09, 2020

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.



Did you know that during the 1963 Inaugural Conference of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) in Addis Ababa, Emperor Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia (1892-1975), literally dropped to his knees and begged Nigeria's Prime Minister The Honourable Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa (1912-1966) to plead with his Foreign Minister, first indigenous Speaker of the Nigerian House of Representatives, former Minister of Aviation and Ugo Ngwa [Eagle and Pride of the Ngwa people], Jaja Anucha Wachuku (1918-1996), to accede to the request of Nicolas Grunitzky (1913-1969), Togolese military President from 1963 to 1967, who overthrew and assassinated

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.

It is always osu, okoros and nyamiri, they don't always know their limit, that was why mere Arewa youth threatened them to leave their land then with ultimatum and their Igbo elders were begging like thieves caught stealing yam. They will not bridle their mouth and enjoy the opportunity are getting.

The Truth Remains That Lagos Is No Mans Land,60 To 70% Of People And Buildings In Lagos Are Own By Housas,igbos,Ss,middle Beltans And Foriegners..So How Possibly Can Afonjaz Claim They Own Lagos?
