Q1. The Chick’s commission was set up to look into the issue of revenue allocation in
Correct Answer: C
The Chick's Commission was established in 1953 by the colonial government to look into the issue of revenue allocation in Nigeria.
The commission was set up ahead of the 1954 Lyttelton Constitution to recommend a suitable system of revenue sharing for the newly proposed federal structure.
It recommended the principle of derivation as the primary basis for revenue sharing, which allowed regions to retain a significant portion of the revenue generated from resources within their borders.
This decision greatly influenced fiscal federalism and strengthened regional autonomy in Nigeria's pre-independence era.

Q9. Military rule is an example of ______ authority.
Correct Answer: B
Military rule is an example of coercive authority because it is established and maintained through the use of physical force, specifically a coup d'état, rather than through constitutional or democratic means.
This type of authority relies on the threat or application of military power and decrees to command obedience from the citizens.
Because it suspends the constitution and overrides democratic processes, it lacks legal-rational legitimacy and is instead sustained by the monopoly of violence held by the armed forces.
