Solution

The correct option is D All of the above

By the 1930s, the colonial powers had cultivated, sometimes inadvertently, a small elite of leaders educated in Western universities and familiar with ideas such as self-determination. These leaders came to lead the struggles for independence, and included leading nationalists such as Jomo Kenyatta (Kenya), Kwame Nkrumah (Gold Coast, now Ghana), Julius Nyerere (Tanganyika, now Tanzania), Leopold Sedar Senghor (Senegal), Nnamdi Azikiwe (Nigeria), and Felix Houphouet-Boigny.
