Frage 1 Bericht
One of the following reasons is unlikely to necessitate the emergence of a federal system?
Antwortdetails
Political sovereignty is unlikely to necessitate the emergence of a federal system. A federal system is a form of government that divides power and authority between a central government and regional governments. This type of system is typically adopted when there is a need to accommodate regional differences and diverse interests within a country, while still maintaining a sense of national unity. Social factors, such as differences in language, religion, and ethnicity, can make it difficult to govern a diverse population without a federal system. Geographical factors, such as a large land area or natural barriers, can create regional differences that require different policies and regulations. Cultural diversity, such as different traditions, values, and customs, can lead to conflicts that can be better managed under a federal system. However, political sovereignty, or the ability of a government to exercise authority within its own borders without external interference, is not necessarily a factor that requires a federal system. A country with a strong central government and a relatively homogenous population may not need a federal system to maintain stability and unity. In fact, some countries with high levels of political sovereignty, such as China, have a centralized form of government rather than a federal one.

Antwortdetails
The Executive Council of the African Union makes decisions by consensus. This means that all members of the council work together to reach a common agreement that everyone can support. Consensus is a decision-making process where everyone's opinions and concerns are taken into account and a solution is reached that is acceptable to all. It is a collaborative approach that encourages open communication, active listening, and compromise. Unlike a majority vote, consensus ensures that everyone's ideas are valued and incorporated into the final decision, leading to more effective and inclusive outcomes. The veto of the General Secretariat is not a decision-making mechanism used by the Executive Council.

The All Progressives Congress (APC) is the result of a merger of four opposition parties in Nigeria. These parties are the All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP), the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), and a faction of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA). Therefore, the answer to the question is "United Progressive Grand Alliance (UPGA)" because UPGA is not one of the political parties that merged to form the APC. The APC was formed in 2013 as a response to the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP) which had been in power since 1999. The merger was aimed at creating a formidable opposition to the PDP in the 2015 general elections, which the APC won, leading to the inauguration of President Muhammadu Buhari as the first opposition candidate to defeat a sitting president in Nigeria's history.

Citizenship by naturalization
Antwortdetails
Citizenship by naturalization refers to the process by which a non-citizen becomes a legal member of a state. It is different from citizenship by marriage or registration, which involve different criteria for obtaining citizenship. Naturalization usually involves satisfying constitutional requirements, such as residing in the country for a certain period of time, passing a citizenship test, and demonstrating knowledge of the country's language and customs. It is an honorable way of attaining citizenship, but it is not an honorary means. Citizenship by birth, on the other hand, is when someone is automatically granted citizenship by being born in a particular country, regardless of their parents' nationality. Naturalization is a legal process that involves the judiciary, but it is not certification for citizenship by birth.

Antwortdetails
The fact that the office of the Chairman is rotational in ECOWAS makes it a perfect example of a collegiate system.

In the case of ECOWAS, the rotating chairmanship allows for equal representation and decision-making power among the member countries, ensuring that no one country has a dominant or controlling role in the organization. This structure helps to promote cooperation and collaboration among the member countries and supports the overall goal of regional integration and economic cooperation.

Frage 17 Bericht
The Indigenant Policy is attributable to the ___
Antwortdetails
The Indigenous Policy, also known as Indigenous Administration or Native Policy, was a policy adopted by several European colonial powers in the 19th and 20th centuries, which aimed to manage and control the indigenous populations in their colonies. While all four options listed have had colonies, the Indigenous Policy was particularly associated with the British Crown colonies, which had large populations of indigenous peoples. The British Empire implemented the policy in places such as Australia, Canada, and New Zealand, as well as in African colonies like Kenya and Nigeria. Under this policy, indigenous peoples were often treated as subjects with a separate legal and administrative system from that of the European settlers. They were subjected to various forms of control and exploitation, such as being forced to work in mines or on plantations, or having their land confiscated for European settlement. Overall, while other colonial powers also implemented policies aimed at controlling and exploiting indigenous peoples, the Indigenous Policy is most commonly associated with the British Crown colonies.
Frage 18 Bericht
The legitimate claims and entitlements available by reasons of birth and residence and/or certification, to a community of people may be abscribed as their___________
Antwortdetails
The legitimate claims and entitlements available to a community of people by reasons of birth, residence, and/or certification are known as their citizenship rights. Citizenship rights refer to the legal, political, and social rights that a person enjoys by being a member of a particular country or state. These rights can include the right to vote, to work, to access healthcare, education, and social services, to own property, to express oneself freely, and to be protected by the law. Citizenship rights are typically based on the principle of jus soli (right of the soil) or jus sanguinis (right of blood), which determine the conditions for acquiring citizenship by birth or descent. In some cases, citizenship can also be acquired through naturalization or marriage. Citizenship rights are an essential component of democratic societies, as they provide a framework for the participation, representation, and protection of all members of a community, regardless of their social status, race, ethnicity, religion, or gender. They reflect the idea that every person has inherent dignity and worth and should be treated with equal respect and consideration under the law. In summary, citizenship rights are a set of legal, political, and social entitlements that are attached to the status of being a citizen and aim to promote the welfare, dignity, and freedom of individuals and the common good of society as a whole.

Frage 22 Bericht

Antwortdetails
The Nigerian council had a major defect that led to its replacement, which was that it was unrepresentative. This means that the council did not adequately represent the diverse interests of the Nigerian people. As a result, it failed to address the needs and concerns of all Nigerians, and its decisions and policies did not reflect the views of the majority. This defect undermined the legitimacy of the council and made it ineffective in governing the country. As a consequence, it became necessary to replace the council with a more representative and inclusive system of governance that could better serve the interests of all Nigerians.
Frage 23 Bericht
The delineation of electoral constituencies for reasons of political advantage is termed
Antwortdetails
The term for the practice of dividing electoral districts in a way that gives an unfair advantage to a particular political party or group is called gerrymandering. This means that electoral boundaries are drawn in a way that makes it easier for one party to win more seats, even if they do not have more overall support from the voters. This can be done by grouping certain communities together, or by splitting up areas where certain groups tend to vote in a certain way. Gerrymandering is often considered a controversial practice, as it can undermine the democratic process and prevent fair representation of all citizens. The term delimitation is also related to the drawing of electoral boundaries, but it refers to the process of determining the geographic boundaries of electoral districts, without the implication of political manipulation.

For example, a pressure group advocating for better wages for workers may issue an ultimatum to the management of a company, demanding a pay raise for workers within a certain timeframe. If the company fails to meet the condition, the pressure group may resort to more aggressive tactics like strikes or protests.

Frage 29 Bericht
Which of the following was not responsible for the coalition between A. G and N. C. N. C.?
Antwortdetails
The option that was not responsible for the coalition between A. G and N. C. N. C. is: Akintola's faction which broke out of A. G. to form UPP. The coalition between A. G (Action Group) and N. C. N. C. (Northern People's Congress and National Council of Nigeria and the Cameroons) was formed in the early 1960s, and it was primarily driven by political considerations. The Kano riot of 1953, which was one of the major factors that led to the formation of the coalition, was a violent clash between Northern and Southern Nigerians that resulted in many deaths and injuries. The riot created a sense of insecurity and unease among the political elites in Nigeria, and many saw the need for a political alliance that could bridge the gap between the North and the South. The contest for the federal election of 1964 was another factor that contributed to the coalition. The election was highly contested, and it was clear that no single party could win without forming an alliance with other parties. The A. G and N. C. N. C. saw the need to join forces to increase their chances of winning the election. The factional crisis in the A. G, which was caused by the rivalry between Awolowo's faction and Akintola's faction, also contributed to the formation of the coalition. Awolowo's faction wanted to get the N. P. C out of power, while Akintola's faction had a different opinion. This difference led to the split in the A. G, and it became clear that the party could not win the election without forming an alliance with other parties. In summary, the coalition between A. G and N. C. N. C. was primarily driven by political considerations, such as the need to bridge the gap between the North and the South, win the federal election of 1964, and resolve the factional crisis in the A. G. The formation of the UPP by Akintola's faction, therefore, was not a factor that contributed to the coalition.
Frage 30 Bericht

Antwortdetails
The form of government that has the slogan of 'ruling of the best' is Aristocracy. Aristocracy is a type of government where a small group of privileged individuals hold power, typically based on their wealth, social status, or intelligence. The term "aristocracy" comes from the Greek words "aristos," which means "best," and "kratos," which means "rule." The idea behind aristocracy is that those who are deemed to be the best and most capable individuals should be the ones to lead the government and make decisions on behalf of the people. This is in contrast to democracy, where power is held by the people as a whole, and decisions are made through a process of popular vote.

Antwortdetails
The primary essence of a public corporation is public utility. A public corporation is a legal entity that is created by the government to perform a specific public function. The primary purpose of a public corporation is to provide essential services to the public, such as transportation, water supply, and electricity, among others. These services are necessary for the well-being of the general public, and as such, the public corporation is created to ensure that they are efficiently and effectively provided. While a public corporation may generate revenue and make a profit, the main focus is on providing public services rather than maximizing profits. As a result, a public corporation is subject to more regulation and oversight than a private corporation, as it is accountable to the public and the government. In summary, the primary essence of a public corporation is public utility, as it is created by the government to provide essential services to the public rather than to maximize profits or formulate government policies or resolve administrative disputes.
