The Republican Constitution of 1963
The prime minister and regional premiers met in May, 1963 to discuss and settle constitutional issues. As a result of this, the conference of heads of government of Nigeria agreed to summon an all-party constitutional conference in Lagos, to suggest to it important changes in the constitution. The all-party conference met in July, 1963 and agreed that Nigeria should become a republic and that the president of the republic should have the same powers and functions as the governor-general had under the independence constitution. This meeting birthed the 1963 constitution.
