In Whitney Smith's book [smi75b] there is
on the Nigeria page a flag of State of Lagos. What is interesting is that the
flag is in proportions approx. 5:6, green-white-green with coat of arms in the
middle (not Nigerian but some other) obviously based on Nigerian flag.

![[Emirate of Kano (Nigeria)]](../images/n/ng-kano.gif)
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.

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.

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.
