Observation

Many candidates attempted this question and performed fairly well. However, they seemed to leave out the fact that Fofo’s role seemed to expose parental negligence.

Candidates were expected to mention the following points among others:

• Fofo as the central character.
• Fofo as a window to the predicaments of the street children.
• Fofo’s encounter with Kabria as a turning point in the development of the plot.
• Fofo’s role in exposing parental irresponsibility.
• The unravelling of Baby T’s murder through Fofo’s encounter with Kabria.
• Fofo as symbol of bright future for the street child.

Candidates’ performance in this question was fair.
