Untold Story Of Madam Tinubu Of Lagos by IROHINOodua: 1:38pm On Sep 22, 2021 |
Untold story of Madam Tinubu of Lagos By Professor Sabur Biobaku (The full paper as presented in 1960) In Nigeria today, and indeed throughout West Africa, there are outstanding women traders who are fulfilling the important role of middlemen in commerce and wielding enormous influence in the affairs of their towns and country. Many of them achieve fame and some a certain measure of immortality. Madame Tinubu, one of their best-known forerunners, certainly achieved both. Tinubu Square in Lagos and Ita Iyalode (Iyalode Square) at Abeokuta both testify to her genius. To her undoubtedly belongs an honoured place among eminent Nigerians of the nineteenth century. https://www.irohinodua.org/untold-story-of-madam-tinubu-of-lagos/ |
