Algebra, chapter I, § 6. Extensions, solvable groups, nilpotent groups

Let f: G' → G be a group homomorphism. Suppose that (a) G is nilpotent. (b) The homomorphism f₁: G'/(G', G') → G/(G, G), derived from f by passing to the quotients, is surjective. Then f is surjective.

This follows from Corollary 3 applied to the subgroup H = f(G').

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
