Answer:

B. Fathers are used to having total authority over choosing their children's spouses.

Explanation:

In the passage, Nnaemeka expresses that his father is unhappy that he was not the one to arrange the marriage to Nene. To Nene from the city of Lagos and "cosmopolitan atmosphere" the idea of arranged marriage obviously pretty foolish, and somewhat of a joke.

However, it proves the patriarchal values and ideas that still run in the rural societies of Nigeria. In those societies, fathers are still the ones to arrange and bless the marriages, and they want to decide from which part of the society the bride of their son comes. This is the obvious example of patriarchy.

Setler79 [48]

The Declaration of Independence argues that people are "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights," and that the role of government is to protect those rights. When the government stops doing so, the people have a right to change their government.

The Declaration is very specific about this: "To secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed."

Paraphin [41]

As the party grew, it needed better organization.Hitler appointed two efficient administrators to run Nazi headquarters; Philipp Bouhler (secretary) and Franz Schwarz (treasurer).He also divided the party into regions; he appointed a network of gauleiters answerable only to him, who ran the NSDAP in each gaue, or region.To fund all this, Hitler improved party finances mainly by befriending Germany's most wealthy businessmen.They shared his hatred of Communism and hoped Hitler would limit the power of trade unions.By the early 1930s, the Nazis were receiving donations from giants of German industry such as Krupp and Bosch.
