Based on the novel The Lekki Headmaster, what did Mr Guta demand in the MD’s office regarding Mr Fafore?

Answer Details

Mr. Guta demanded the immediate dismissal of Mr. Fafore. During Open Day, Mr. Guta visited the MD's office and angrily insisted that Mr. Fafore, the English language teacher, be fired from the school. His demand was based on what he believed was a grammatical error he had found in his son's class notes, which he attributed to Mr. Fafore's teaching.

Mr. Guta's reaction was extreme: rather than seeking a correction or clarification, he went straight to the school's highest authority and demanded that the teacher lose his job over the alleged mistake. This reflects the power dynamics in the novel, where wealthy or influential parents can exert pressure on school management to take drastic action against staff.

The other options do not match the narrative. Mr. Guta did not ask for a salary increase for Mr. Fafore, a change in class teacher, or a public apology. His sole demand was that Mr. Fafore be dismissed immediately.
