Lagos has never been for sale. The assets of these families, these highly prosperous, educated and wealthy Lagos families are still standing till today Here's a very educative read of the Lagos most of you don't know. TKE Phillips is the first Pharmacist in Nigeria, Edmund Macaulay (Sir Kitoye Ajasa) is the 1st Nigerian to be Knighted , Chief Christopher Alexander Sapara Williams CMG (14 July 1855 – 15 March 1915) is Nigeria's first Lawyer called to the English bar on 17 November 1879, while Dr JC Vaughan alongside his colleagues formed the Lagos Youth Movement(NYM) which later became Nigeria Youth Movement here in Lagos that fought with other groups for Nigeria's independence. From Darocha to Bank-Anthony , Shitta-Bey , Randle, Vaughan , Macaulay , Oluwa, Kosoko, Dosunmu , Abina, Alakija, Ashogbon, Ojora, Tinubu , Sasegbon, Sasore etc, Lagos is never and has never been for sale. Proudly one of the descendants of these illustrious families. We are grateful to God for our forebears sacrifices and the virtues of patriotism they handed down to us. Shout out to these Yoruba families; Vaughan Willoughby Petgrave Phillips Thomas Beecroft Verissimo, Shaw, Da-Silva, Pratt, Payne, Bickersteth, Cole, Carrena, Damazio, Pedro, Audiffren, Gomez, Jones, Rhodes, Darocha, Williams, Sawyerr, Pearse, Ransome-Kuti, Plumptre, Bucknor, Santos, Savage, Turton, Dallas, Johnson, Moore, Macaulay, Egerton, Boyle, Domingo, Randle, Carr, Davies, George, Blaise, Davies, Shacleford, Taylor, Combe, Candide, Vera-Cruz, Anthony, Fernandez, Lawanson, Clegg, Damazio, Lucas, Lewis, Martins, Campbell, Smith, Coker, Braithwaite, Wellington, Vivour, Silva, Soares Antonio Brown, Salvador, Holloway, Peters, Macgregor, Grillo, Campos, Trezises, Pereira, Pineirho, Martinez, Marinho, Dacosta, Piero, Ribeiro, De Souza, Moreira, Cardoso, Ferreira, Cruz, Ganzallo, Branco, Agusto, Shitta-Bey, Allen, Coates, Evans, Forsythe, Griffin, Griffith, Joseph, Berkley, MacCarthy, Fischer, Ricketts, Roberts, Simpson, Reis, Shyllon 81 Likes 12 Shares

Not related but those of you calling for the invasion of Niger I hope you see this! Burkina Faso has heightened her military readiness to it's highest level, and has informed her citizens of possibly going to war, in defense of Niger-Republic. Mali, and Algeria are on standby to roll-in their tanks. Wagner fighters are already moving from C.A.R to Niger. Where do you think they'll head to next after grinding the deployed Nigerian military men like Melon! 2 Likes 1 Share |
