Uche Zakari
Master of shoemaking, now teaching apprentices
- 🇳🇬 Lagos, Lagos, Nigeria
- Cedar Grove Shop
- Since 1988
- English, Igbo
I'm a shoemaking specialist. If you live around Lagos, there's a good chance I've worked in a building near you.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I garden badly but happily.
More about Uche
Some of my old apprentices now run their own shops. I couldn't be prouder.

What gifts mean to Uche: A gift would go toward tools for apprentices who can't afford their own.
