It existed between 1 October 1960 and 1 October 1963. When British rule ended in 1960, Nigeria Independence Act 1960〔Nigeria Independence Act 1960, 8 & 9 Eliz. 2 c.55〕 transformed the Federation of Nigeria into an independent sovereign Commonwealth realm. Nigeria shared the Sovereign (British monarch Elizabeth II) with the other Commonwealth realms. The monarch's constitutional roles were mostly delegated to the Governor-General of Nigeria. The royal succession was governed by the English Act of Settlement of 1701. Two people held the office of governor-general: # Sir James Wilson Robertson October 1960 - 16 November 1960 # Nnamdi Azikiwe November 16, 1960 – October 1, 1963 Abubakar Tafawa Balewa held office as prime minister (and head of government). The Federal Republic of Nigeria came into existence on 1 October 1963.〔Nigeria Republic Act 1963, c. 57〕 The monarchy was abolished and Nigeria became a republic within the Commonwealth. Following the abolition of the monarchy, former Governor-General Nnamdi Azikiwe became President of Nigeria. Elizabeth II did not visit the Federation of Nigeria between 1960 and 1963. She did visit: *1956 (28 January–16 February) *2003 (3–6 December) ==See also==
