Zainab Aisha Chukwu
Master of shoemaking, now teaching apprentices
- 🇳🇬 Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria
- Little Frangipani Repairs
- Since 1985
- English
I've worked in shoemaking since 1985. I learned from my aunt and passed what I could on to 1,110 apprentices.
I can still tell good work from rushed work from across the street. I bake for the whole street at New Year.

If I fixed something for you, I hope it's still holding.

What gifts mean to Zainab: I'd put gifts toward a new set of tools for the next apprentice.
