Answer Details
The discovery of Terracotta in 1928 on NOK soil in Kaduna state was made by Colonel Dent Young, a British colonial administrator who was serving as the Resident of the Northern Province of Nigeria at the time. During a routine inspection of a tin mine in the village of Nok, Young stumbled upon some strange objects that turned out to be ancient terracotta sculptures. These sculptures were unlike anything he had seen before, and he immediately recognized their significance. Young made the discovery of the Nok Terracotta figurines by chance, but his efforts to document and preserve the findings helped to launch the study of ancient Nigerian art and culture. Today, the Nok Terracotta remains a crucial piece of African history, and a symbol of the rich cultural heritage of Nigeria.

Answer Details
The Muslim reform movement has grown due to inspiration from Pakistan, North Africa, and Arab countries. However, Argentina is not typically recognized as a source of inspiration for the Muslim reform movement. Pakistan, North Africa, and Arab countries have all seen significant political and social changes in recent years, which have led to increased interest in reforming traditional interpretations of Islam. These changes have been driven by a variety of factors, including political instability, economic hardship, and social inequality. As a result, many Muslims in these regions have sought new ways to practice their faith and have turned to reform movements as a means of achieving this. In contrast, Argentina is not typically recognized as a source of inspiration for the Muslim reform movement. While there is a small Muslim community in Argentina, it is not a major center of Islamic scholarship or activism. Therefore, it is less likely to be a source of inspiration for the Muslim reform movement compared to Pakistan, North Africa, and Arab countries.

The January 1966 coup was led by mostly Igbo officers who overthrew the democratic government of Nigeria, which led to the assassination of several prominent Nigerian politicians from the Northern and Western regions.

Exploitation is not a social development under colonial rule. Under colonial rule, exploitation was a means for the colonizers to extract resources and labor from the colonized people.

Answer Details
The trans-Atlantic slave trade was replaced with a search for raw materials by the British due to the industrial revolution. The industrial revolution, which began in Britain in the late 18th century, brought about a massive increase in the demand for raw materials to fuel the growth of new industries. The British, who were at the forefront of this economic transformation, began to look for new sources of raw materials to feed their growing factories. This led to a shift away from the trans-Atlantic slave trade, which had been a major source of labor for British colonies in the Americas, and towards the search for raw materials in other parts of the world. This change had a profound impact on the global economy and shaped the course of world history in the 19th and 20th centuries.

Question 36 Report
In whose regime was illegal West Africa aliens living in Nigeria expelled?
Answer Details
Illegal West Africa aliens living in Nigeria were expelled during the Buhari/Idiagbon era. In 1983, General Muhammadu Buhari became the military head of state of Nigeria after a military coup. He appointed Major-General Tunde Idiagbon as his deputy. During their regime, a policy was put in place to expel illegal immigrants who were mostly from West Africa, particularly Ghana. The policy was known as the "Aliens Compliance Order" and it gave illegal immigrants a two-week ultimatum to leave the country or face deportation. The policy was part of the government's effort to tackle economic challenges, including high unemployment and a shortage of resources, which were exacerbated by the presence of illegal immigrants. The government also believed that illegal immigrants were responsible for criminal activities and other social problems in the country. As a result of the policy, an estimated two million immigrants, mostly Ghanaians, were forced to leave Nigeria. The move was widely criticized by the international community and human rights groups, who accused the government of violating the rights of the immigrants. However, the Buhari/Idiagbon regime defended the policy, arguing that it was necessary to protect the interests of Nigerians and maintain law and order in the country.

Question 40 Report
Answer Details
Due to colonialism, the new day Nigeria now has English as her official language. Nigeria was colonized by the British from the late 19th century until it gained its independence in 1960. During the period of British colonial rule, the English language was introduced and used as the official language for administrative purposes. After independence, English continued to be used as the official language for governance, education, business, and other formal communication. Today, English is spoken by the majority of Nigerians and serves as a unifying language for the country's diverse ethnic and linguistic groups. While Pidgin and Hausa are widely spoken in Nigeria, they are not official languages. French, on the other hand, was not introduced by the colonial authorities in Nigeria since Nigeria was not colonized by the French.
