Observation

This is a popular question among the candidates. A good number of those who attempted the questions pointed out the relevance of the pieces of advice given to Yaremi by the three widows.

The required answers should include:

• Statement of the central theme.
• Character identification: Yaremi, Dedewe, Fayoyin and Radeke.
• Experiences of the widow and the expectation of the society.
• The tradition of remarrying by cap picking.
• The advice given to Yaremi and her refusal to remarry.

Candidates’ performance in this question was good.
