Background
Southern Nigeria was a British protectorate in the coastal areas
of modern-day Nigeria formed in 1900 from
union of the Niger Coast Protectorate
and the territories under the administrative control of the
Royal Niger Company below Lokoja on the Niger River. The
Lagos Colony was added in 1906 and
the territory was officially renamed the Colony and Protectorate
of Southern Nigeria. In 1914, Southern Nigeria amalgamated
with the Northern Nigeria Protectorate
to form the Colony and Protectorate of
Nigeria.

Southern Nigeria flew a blue ensign defaced with the badge of the
protectorate in the fly.
The badges for Northern and Southern Nigeria were added to the 1889
Admiralty Flag Book by an amendment issued in March 1901. I have not seen the
text that went with the illustrations and don't know whether the defaced Union
Jacks were used by High Commissioners as well as Governors.
