In 1946 Niqeria Was Shared Into Regions... Federati0n Means Sharin Governmental Powers Btw D Central, State And Local Authorities. So Dats D Same Tin Wt Regi0nalism, It Is Correct

It is true that Nigeria formally became a region in 1954 under the Lyttleton Constitution. But since that is not in the options, the best answer is 1946.
The Arthur Richards Constitution introduced regionalism by dividing the country into Northern, Western, and Eastern regions. This laid the foundation for federalism by decentralising power and granting some autonomy to the regions. However, it is important to note that this was not "true federalism" as we understand it today, since the regions did not have legislative powers at the time.
It is the Lyttleton Constitution of 1954, which formally established Nigeria as a federal state. It refined the federal structure by granting legislative powers to the regions and establishing a clearer division of authority between the central and regional governments.

the ans is d we became a federationn 1946,afterwhich we were approved ofa nation in 1960 and a republic in 1963

U guys are confusing me about d correct answer...
Pls my school u people should check what is d correct answer am confuse with peoples contribution thanks..

The correct option is A. 1960 because we all know that the Lyttleton Constitution of 1954 was the one that established the internal federation of Nigeria but 1954 isn't an option here. The only reasonable option is 1960 bcuz when we gained independence Nigeria was referred to as the "Federation of Nigeria" and the other options are wrong bcuz they didn't bring about the formal Federalism in Nigeria.

Nigeria formally became a federation on October 1, 1963, when it gained independence from British colonial rule and became a federal republic.

The answer is not in the options; for Nigeria formally became a federation in 1954.
1946 was only the fans et origo
