Lagos Daily News
The Lagos Daily News is a Nigerian newspaper founded in 1925 that was the first daily newspaper in British West Africa.[1] It was bought by Herbert Macaulay and John Akilade Caulcrick in 1927.[2] The paper was politically aligned with Macaulay's Nigerian National Democratic Party.[3][4] It was part of the internal factors that led to the rise and growth of nationalism in Nigeria during the colonial period which led to the decolonization process.
