Nigeria developed out various kingdoms and people living separately from one another.trade, religion and desire to visit other people (adventure) made the Europeans to come in contact with the people of Africa. Nigeria inclusive.
Following the Berlin conference of 1886 of which Africa was partitioned among the colonial powers (the British,french, Germany, Portuguese and Spanish) the influence of the British was more direct in Nigeria territories.
Lord lugard amalgamated the three different entities (Lagos colony,the southern and the northern protectorates of Nigeria) in 1914.
And since then Nigeria had been under colonial rule until 1960 when she got her independence.britain ruled the country as one political unit for 46years by 1963, Nigeria became a republican State with an elected leader as the Head.
