April 1959 - We Salute The North And Its People - The Emir of Katsina: Alhaji Sir Usman Nagogo. The people of Northern Nigeria celebrated their regional self-government of March 15, 1959. The celebration was in keeping with the promise of the political leaders of the region and with the approval of the British government. With Northern Nigeria regionally self-governing, the path of the three regions that make up the Federation of Nigeria is now cleared of all obstacles. They can now march side by side to the attainment of national self-government in 1960. (Photograph by Drum Photographer @ BAHA)
