How JAMB tests Lekki Headmaster

JAMB ENGLISH QUESTIONS on Lekki Headmaster won’t just ask ‘what happened’.

Most will be inference questions.

These are questions that asks you what a character’s action or statement suggests or implies.

For example.

“When Bepo wonders how he let personal boundaries with a parent blur…”

This question isn’t about whether you remember that part, but whether you can read between the lines and identify his regret.

This is the exact skill JAMB rewards across its Lekki Headmaster novel questions.

Read the full novel, not summary

Every answer is on a specific page and paragraph.

These answers often about a specific proverb, phrase, name, and so on.

Skimming the novel isn’t enough.

The proverbs from different languages used throughout the book carry cultural context that a mere summary may not fully capture.

JAMB checks if you understood the proverbs’ meanings too.

And their meanings often depend on how they apply to the particular situation of that chapter.

So, read every page of the book and don’t rely on summary.

The theme of Lekki Headmaster novel

Lekki Headmaster follows Bepo’s journey as Stardom’s principal navigating corruption, financial pressure and the pull to relocate abroad (“japa”).

This is the central theme or main idea.

Most questions will ask what the story’s overall message is, and the answer clues are around the theme.

Keep this theme in mind while reading each chapter.

This will make the “inference” questions easier because most of them refer to this same idea in different ways.
