Observation

The question demands that the candidate writes a letter to the Local Government Administrator on the absence of some basic amenities in his/her community, explaining the importance of these basic amenities in the lives of the citizens and the effects of the absence on the lives of the people within his/her community. This is a formal letter and the candidates who attempted the question correctly identified the basic amenities their communities lacked and their attendant effects on the people. They were also able to proffer suggestions to ameliorate their precarious conditions. However, some showed no understanding of what is meant by basic amenities.
