Détails de la réponse
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.

Question 22 Rapport
In a democratic system _______
Détails de la réponse
In a democratic system, the people have the power to choose their leaders and the policies that govern them. This is typically done through free and fair elections, where each person gets one vote, and the candidate or policy with the most votes wins. This is known as majority vote. However, in a true democracy, it's also important to protect the rights of minorities and ensure that legal sovereignty is not unquestionable. This means that even if the majority of people support a certain policy or candidate, it cannot violate the fundamental rights of individuals or groups. The use of an electoral college is not always necessary in a democratic system, as it depends on the specific rules and processes of each country. Some countries use direct elections, where the person with the most votes wins, while others use a system of delegates or representatives to select their leaders. Finally, while the majority vote is the most common way of making decisions in a democratic system, it's also important to ensure that the rights and interests of minorities are not ignored. This can be achieved through various means, such as protecting individual rights, promoting dialogue and compromise, and creating systems of checks and balances to prevent the abuse of power.

Détails de la réponse
The fact that the office of the Chairman is rotational in ECOWAS makes it a perfect example of a collegiate system. In a collegiate system, decision-making power is shared among a group of individuals, rather than being held by a single leader. 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.

Détails de la réponse

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.

Détails de la réponse
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.

Détails de la réponse
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).

The creation of twelve states allowed for greater representation and decentralization of power, leading to better management of resources and more equitable development across the country. Overall, the creation of twelve states is widely regarded as a positive development in Nigeria's political history, and it remains a lasting legacy of Gowon's regime.

Question 37 Rapport
Citizenship by naturalization
Détails de la réponse
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.
Question 38 Rapport

Détails de la réponse
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.

Détails de la réponse
Lobbying is often a strategy adopted by pressure groups. Pressure groups are organizations or individuals that seek to influence public policy and bring attention to a specific issue or cause. Lobbying is one of the key tactics used by pressure groups to achieve their goals. Lobbying involves communicating with government officials, legislators, and other decision-makers in order to try to persuade them to support or oppose a particular policy or issue. This can take many forms, including meetings, phone calls, emails, and written communications. While political parties may engage in lobbying, they are typically focused on broader political issues and electoral campaigns, rather than specific policy outcomes. Public corporations may also engage in lobbying, but their efforts are usually geared towards promoting their own interests, rather than advocating for a particular cause or issue. Public authorities, such as government agencies, may be the subject of lobbying efforts, but they typically do not engage in lobbying themselves. Overall, lobbying is most commonly associated with pressure groups, which use it as a key strategy to advance their policy goals and influence the decisions of government officials and other decision-makers.
