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.

Today, the Nok Terracotta remains a crucial piece of African history, and a symbol of the rich cultural heritage of Nigeria.
Question 3 Report
Answer Details
The Portuguese were the first set of people to land on the present day Nigeria territory for trading activities. In the late 15th century, the Portuguese began exploring the West African coast, seeking a direct sea route to Asia for trade. In 1471, the Portuguese explorer, Rui de Sequeira, landed on the coast of what is now Nigeria and established trade relations with the local people. The Portuguese were particularly interested in trading for gold, ivory, and pepper, which they found in abundance in the region. They established trade posts and forts along the coast, including in Lagos, which became a major center for trade and commerce. The Portuguese also introduced Christianity to the region and attempted to establish a permanent settlement in the area, but they were met with resistance from the local rulers and were eventually driven out. Overall, the Portuguese played a significant role in the early European exploration and exploitation of West Africa, including what is now Nigeria. They were the first Europeans to establish contact with the local people and to begin trading for valuable resources in the region.

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.

Answer Details
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.

Trade relations, the establishment of a common legal system, and the emergence of the press are all social developments that occurred under colonial rule. Trade relations led to the exchange of goods and ideas between different regions and cultures, while the establishment of a common legal system provided a framework for resolving disputes and enforcing laws. The emergence of the press allowed for the dissemination of information and the formation of public opinion.

Answer Details
Freetown, which is the capital city of Sierra Leone, was used to facilitate the settlement of freed slaves from 1822 to the early 20th century. In the late 18th and early 19th centuries, several British organizations and individuals began advocating for the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade and the emancipation of enslaved Africans. After the British Parliament passed the Slavery Abolition Act in 1833, which abolished slavery throughout the British Empire, many enslaved Africans were freed and needed a place to settle. In 1822, the British government established a settlement for freed slaves in Freetown, which had been founded by the Sierra Leone Company in 1792 as a home for repatriated Africans and other people of African descent. The freed slaves, known as the "recaptives," were resettled in Freetown and other parts of Sierra Leone. Freetown became a center of resettlement for freed slaves from all over West Africa, and the settlement of the recaptives continued until the early 20th century. Freetown also became a hub for the anti-slavery movement and the promotion of Christianity, as many of the recaptives were evangelized by Christian missionaries and educated in Christian schools. In summary, Freetown was used to facilitate the settlement of freed slaves from 1822 to the early 20th century, as the British government established a settlement for them in the city.
