Lugard’s Footbridge
The Lugard Footbridge is a pedestrian bridge located in Kaduna, the capital of Kaduna State, Nigeria.
It was built by Sir Frederick Lugard in 1904 at Zungeru, the capital of the Northern Protectorate of Nigeria. After the amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, the bridge was reconstructed in 1920 after it was moved to Gamji Gate in Kaduna, which at the time served as the new Northern Headquarters.
