The correct answer is B because it correctly matches the prominent political leaders to their respective African nations. Luisa Dias Diogo served as the Prime Minister of Mozambique from 2004 to 2010. Mwai Kibaki was the third President of Kenya, serving from 2002 to 2013. Rupiah Banda served as the fourth President of Zambia from 2008 to 2011. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-2, B-1, and C-3.
