The Flag of Nigeria between 1914 and 1960 was a British blue ensign with a green Star of David surrounding a Tudor Crown (later changed to a St Edward's Crown in 1953) with the white word "Nigeria" under it on a red disc.

The flag was not universally accepted. Some native Nigerians, including Fela Kuti, refused to salute the flag despite it being mandated in schools. In 1956, some Nigerian Muslims burned the Nigerian blue ensign at Mecca, Saudi Arabia, because of the Jewish Star of David on it. In 1959, prior to Nigerian Independence a competition to design a new flag was held with Taiwo Akinkunmi designing the new flag of Nigeria which replaced blue ensign in 1960
The flag of Nigeria was designed in 1959 and first officially hosted on 1 October 1960. The flag has three vertical bands of green, white, green. The two green stripes represent Nigeria's natural wealth, while the white band represents peace.
Michael Taiwo Akinkunmi OFR is a retired Nigerian civil servant. He is famous for designing Nigeria's national flag, and he is commonly called "Mr. Flag Man". 
Akinkunmi was a 23-year-old student at the time he designed the flag. He was studying at Norwich Technical College in London, England, when he saw an advertisement in a newspaper that submissions were being accepted for the design of a new national flag of Nigeria.
So many years have passed but his legacy lives on. Although he is still alive but when he dies he would always be remembered as the Hero that designed the Nigerian Flag.
