Citizenship does not only go with rights but also the performance of

Step 1: Analyze the question The question says citizenship comes with rights, but "not only" rights. It asks what else a citizen must perform. This points to the other side of citizenship: responsibilities.

Step 2: Explain the concept In Government, citizenship is a two-way relationship between the individual and the state:

• Rights are the privileges and freedoms the state guarantees, such as the right to life, vote, freedom of expression and education.
• Duties and obligations are what the citizen owes the state, such as paying taxes, obeying laws, voting, respecting the national flag and anthem, protecting public property, and defending the nation when necessary.

Rights and duties go together. A citizen who enjoys the protection of the state must also contribute to its growth and stability.

Step 3: Evaluate the options

• A. Compulsory military service: This is not a general duty of every citizen. In Nigeria, military service is voluntary. It is too narrow and specific.
• B. Compulsory teaching: No such requirement exists for citizens.
• C. Certain obligations and duties: This is the general, correct description of what accompanies rights.
• D. Certain religious rites: Nigeria is a secular state, and the constitution guarantees freedom of religion, so citizens cannot be compelled to perform religious rites.

Step 4: Answer The correct option is C. certain obligations and duties.

Exam tip: Whenever you see "rights and ...", the answer is almost always "duties/obligations/responsibilities". Remember the pairing Rights ↔ Duties. Also be wary of options that are too specific (like military service) when a broader, general option is available.
