Observation

The candidate was required to write a letter to the minister of health of his /her country discussing his/her observation on the increase in the cases of malaria in his/her country and suggesting at least three ways of curbing the disease. There are two parts to the question: the candidate’s observation and his suggestions on how to curb the disease. Very few candidates attempted this question and the performance was woeful. Majority of them failed to satisfy the requirement of the content and some candidates were unable to use the appropriate format for a formal letter.
