Nigeria

Lagos

by Željko Heimer

In Whitney Smith's book there is on the Nigeria page a flag of State of Lagos. What is interesting is that the flag is in proportions aprox. 5:6, green-white-green with coat of arms in the middle (not Nigerian but some other) obviously based on Nigerian flag.

Kano (the Emirate of Kano)

Among the many flag designs Mr. Pasch had sent me, there was one of the Emirate of Kano (Kano is the largest city in Northern Nigeria, I would not be surprised if its current population was of two or three million inhabitants). His source was Flaggenmitteilungen, years 1983-1984. Could anybody tell me what the status of the flag was? Is is still used? I have a vague remembrance of seeing a flag on a report about Northern Nigeria.

Katsina Emirate

Mr. Pasch mentioned a flag for Katsina Emirate (possibly, the Emir of Katsina still is a major, if not the most influential personality in Muslim Nigeria nowadays). This flag was white with "KATSINA" or "EMIRAT KATSINA" written in black in the canton. There should be a more precise drawing in the same issue of Flaggenmitteilungen.

Unidentified Kaduna Flag

by Jaume Ollé

I saw a brief report about Kaduna State. I saw one flag, but I don't know its attribution. I believe that it is not the state flag.
