Summary: The Civil Service in Nigeria owes its origin to its British counterpart. In the United Kingdom, the foundations of the Civil Service were laid by the Northcote and Trevelyan Report in 1854. These two reports led to the emergence of the Civil Service Commission in the United Kingdom whose role was restricted mainly to the conduct of examinations for entry into the top classes of the Civil Service. By 1948, with the introduction of the Macpherson Constitution, nationalism had become more vocal and one its elements was a cry for more Nigerianisation of the Civil Service.
