Which Is A No Mans Land? Calabar,Lagos or Abuja. by cocolacec(m): 10:54am On Jul 23, 2020 |
Calabar was considered as the first capital of Nigeria because it served as the first capital of the Southern Protectorate, the Oil River Protectorate, and Niger Coast Protectorate. After the chiefs of Duke Town accepted British protection in 1884, the town, which was called Old Calabar until 1904, served as capital of the Oil Rivers Protectorate (1885–93), the Niger Coast Protectorate (1893–1900), and Southern Nigeria (1900–06) until the British administrative headquarters were moved to Lagos. This was until the late nineteenth century, when the administrative centre of the Southern protectorate was moved to Lagos in 1906. Lagos, city and chief port, Lagos state, Nigeria. Until 1975 it was the capital of Lagos state, and until December 1991 it was the federal capital of Nigeria. Ikeja replaced Lagos as the state capital, and Abuja replaced Lagos as the federal capital. Abuja, city, capital of Nigeria. It lies in the central part of Nigeria, in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT; created 1976). The city is approximately 300 miles (480 km) northeast of Lagos, the former capital (until 1991). Lagos seized to be the capital since 1991 ,The Ibos still see Lagos as a no mans land.That is a great disrespect to the people who have accomodated you tolerated all excesses and see you as their own to even intermarry with them. Can the Ijaws,Ibibios claims Enugu as no manns land because it was the Eastern Region capital during regional Government? How come Calabar and Abuja are not regarded as no mans land? Is the Yoruba tolerance becoming its greatest undoing? 4 Likes

NaijaRoyalty: There is no land boundary between the east and the west. While the Yoruba belongs to one large family. With the generallisimo - Aare Ona Kakanfo coming from any Yoruba province. The Unity is stronger than blood ties. ![]() Albeit. Madam Tinubu has enormous power in Lagos before the coming of the British. You don't have the liberty to define who is the son of the soil. So, take the back seat as usual and pressurrize your governors back home to utilize the resources they enjoy from Nigeria despite their low IGRs. ![]() 13 Likes 1 Share |
