Question 3
BAYO ADEBOWALE: Lonely Days
What impression do you form of Yaremi in the novel?
Observation
This was a popular question. while it was expected that candidates will express their personal impression about Yaremi, they told stories of Yaremi’s life rather than her character.
The following points should be well developed by the candidates:
* Yaremi is the central character in the novel.
* Yaremi exudes strength and quality which can be admired.
* Yaremi as industrious and also a dedicated and dutiful housewife.
* Yaremi is generous and also independent.
Candidates’ performance in this question was fair.
