SECTION B
(4)
The struggle for power between the Shuwa and Kanuri people in Borno caused a division that eventually led to the decline of the empire and borno lost its trade to Sokoto in the West and the control of the Eastern trans-Saharan trade routes which was the bedrock of the empire’s greatness was also lost. In other words the peasants were neglected and the dynasty made more demands on the meager resources of the poor. Although the dynasty ended, the kingdom of Kanem-Bornu survived. Umar could not match his father’s vitality ,and gradually allowed the kingdom to be ruled by advisers. Bornu began a further decline as a result of administrative disorganization, regional particularism, and attacks by the militant Ouaddai Empire to the east. The decline continued under Umar’s sons. In 1893, Rabih az-Zubayr led an invading army from eastern Sudan and conquered Bornu. Following his expulsion shortly thereafter, the state was absorbed by the British-ruled entity that eventually became known as Nigeria. From that point on, a remnant of the old kingdom was (and still is) allowed to continue to exist in subjection to the various governments of the country as the Borno Emirate.
(5). The British expedition against the Yoruba kingdom of Ijebu-Ode (Nigeria) in 1892 variously affected different Ijebu communities. Epe, a composite town consisting of immigrants from Lagos, the Eko-Epe, and Ijebu indigenes, is a case in point. Kosoko, a distant relative of the Awujale (king) of Ijebu-Ode, and king of Lagos, who had been driven from Lagos on 28 December 1851, administered Epe and its outlying lagoon villages as a State virtually independent of the Ijebu-Ode kingdom. Shortly after Kosoko’s return to Lagos, the Ijebu indigenes began to react against measures relegating them to the political background. The political situation in Epe was further exacerbated by the British expedition. As a result of the Ijebu defeat, Epe was formally placed under the British colonial administration and made part of the colony of Lagos, while Ijebu Ode came under the jurisdiction of the Lagos Protectorate. The expedition increased ethnic acrimony in Epe, with the Ijebu-Epe denouncing the Eko-Epe’s assistance to the British invaders. The Ijebu-Epe demanded and got their own separate Native Council, and the town was divided into two separate administrative areas. However, the new dispensation fell short of Ijebu aspirations and in the years 1905-1920 intergroup conflict intensified until administrative reorganizations in 1921 and 1925 put an end to Eko-Epe political dominance.

SECTION C
(7i)Removal of sectionalism; the Clifford constitution is the fact that it brought sectionalism into the politics of Nigeria. The Richard constitution which immediately followed the Clifford constitution sought to correct this. The constitution therefore sought to promote the unity of Nigeria.(7ii)Introduction of federalism; The Richard constitution is credited to have introduced the federal idea into the Nigerian body politics. This is because the constitution made provision for the creation of three regions, each with its Regional Legislative Council. This gave the indication that Nigeria may become a federal state in the future.(7iii)More consultative than Clifford constitution; There was more consultation with the Nigerians in the introduction of the Richard constitution. Though this was the case, the Richard constitution is also criticized for not engaging in enough consultation with the broad masses of Nigerians before its promulgation.
