Question 6 Report

The ruler that was driven out of Lagos by the British was

Oba Akintoye

Oba Dosumu

Oba Kosoko Correct answer

Oba Adele.

Answer Details

During the colonial era, Lagos was a powerful kingdom in what is now Nigeria. The British colonial government wanted to expand their influence in the region and in 1851, they signed a treaty with Oba Kosoko, who was then the ruler of Lagos. However, the British were not happy with Kosoko's rule, and in 1851, they deposed him and installed his nephew, Akitoye, as the new Oba of Lagos. Later in 1853, Kosoko returned to Lagos and reclaimed the throne with the help of the Egbas. However, in 1854, the British intervened again and this time, they drove Kosoko out of Lagos and installed Oba Dosumu as the new ruler. Therefore, the ruler that was driven out of Lagos by the British was Oba Kosoko.

Question 9 Report

It was difficult for the Nigerian coastal chiefs to give up the slave trade after its abolition because

it had been part of African culture

Africans were too involved to give up the trade

the British Navy was not effective in enforcing the abolition

the trade was still crucial to the economy of their states. Correct answer

Answer Details

The Nigerian coastal chiefs found it difficult to give up the slave trade after its abolition because it was still crucial to the economy of their states. The slave trade had been a major source of income for the coastal chiefs and their communities for centuries. The abolition of the trade meant a significant loss of revenue, and many coastal chiefs were reluctant to give up such a profitable business. Additionally, the British Navy was not always effective in enforcing the abolition, and some African rulers were able to continue the trade secretly. While the slave trade had been a part of African culture in the past, this was not the primary reason why the coastal chiefs found it difficult to give it up after abolition.

The objective of the 1934 legislation imposing quotas on imported goods from non-British sources was to

increase Nigeria’s Gross National Product

exclude cheap Japanese textiles Correct answer

regulate trade between Nigeria and other countries.

Answer Details

The objective of the 1934 legislation imposing quotas on imported goods from non-British sources was to exclude cheap Japanese textiles. This legislation was introduced by the British colonial government in Nigeria as a means of protecting British textile manufacturers from competition by cheaper textile imports from non-British sources, especially Japan. The legislation was a response to the decline in the demand for British textiles, which resulted from the Great Depression of the 1930s. By imposing quotas on imports of non-British textiles, the British colonial government sought to maintain the British textile industry's market share in Nigeria.

place for the spread of African culture

leading producer of cotton.

Answer Details

Sierra Leone was very important in the history of West Africa during the colonial period as a center for the spread of Christianity. This was due to the efforts of Christian missionaries who arrived in the country in the late 18th century and established schools, hospitals, and churches. The country became a hub for missionary activities, and many Africans from other parts of West Africa came to Sierra Leone to receive education and religious instruction. The spread of Christianity in Sierra Leone had a significant impact on the region's social and cultural landscape, and it contributed to the emergence of a new African Christian identity that blended traditional African beliefs with Christian teachings.

Intensified European activity along the coast in the nineteenth century led Benin to lose control of some vassal states. European powers, particularly Britain, had a growing interest in West Africa, and Benin was one of the states that experienced the impact of this interest. The increased European activity led to the loss of some of the vassal states that were previously under the control of Benin. The Europeans established trading relationships with these states and weakened Benin's power and control over the region.

The Native Authority Ordinance of 1916 introduced direct taxation into Yorubaland and thereby

gave greater administrative and judicial responsibilities to the Oba Correct answer

made Yorubaland a beneficiary of British aid

encouraged the appointment of more British officials

involved the educated elite in colonial administration.

Answer Details

The Native Authority Ordinance of 1916 introduced direct taxation in Yorubaland, which means that people had to pay tax directly to the government. This had the effect of involving the people more directly in the colonial administration, as they were now required to pay taxes to the government. It also led to the appointment of more British officials to help collect the taxes and administer the colonial government. This increased the influence of the colonial government in Yorubaland and reduced the power of the traditional rulers, such as the Oba, who previously had more control over their own territories.

The Aku of Wukari derived his power mainly from his spiritual influence in the kingdom during the pre-colonial period.
