Altogether, the general performance of the candidates was very poor in this question. However, the candidates were expected to explain the following points in order to score well in the question:
(i) The aims of the Brazzaville Conference were to determine the future relationship between France and her colonies and also to determine the lines along which the colonies should develop;
(ii) it was there that agreement was reached for African colonies to send their representatives to the first and second Constituent Assemblies in Paris;
(iii) the Conference decided that colonies should have Local Assemblies or Legislatures with African and French representatives;
(iv) it was agreed at the Conference that African culture, condemned originally, be left intact;
(v) French citizenship should be extended to all Africans;
(vi) the indigent policy which was used to champion on all oppositions to the French colonial rule was abolished.
