1926 Lagos by-election

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A by-election was held for the Lagos seat in the Legislative Council of Nigeria on 30 April 1926.[1] It followed the death of incumbent Egerton Shyngle, who had been a member of the Nigerian National Democratic Party (NNDP).[2] John Caulcrick of the NNDP was elected with 69% of the vote.

Campaign

Four candidates contested the elections; Caulcrick, a medical practitioner, was nominated by the NNDP, whilst the other three ran as independents. Two of whom had also contested the 1923 general elections – barrister Adeyemo Alakija and civil engineer George Debayo Agbebi, who had received 6% and 3% of the vote respectively. The final candidate was P J C Thomas, a businessman.[2]
