Answer Details

In The Lekki Headmaster, the novel highlights the state of public healthcare in Nigeria through its depiction of General Hospitals. One of the key challenges cited is the problem of large crowds. Patients and their families flood these hospitals, leading to long waiting times, overstretched staff, and difficulty accessing timely medical attention.

Overcrowding in Nigerian public hospitals is a well-known issue that the novel uses to illustrate broader societal challenges. The other options, while they may be problems in various settings, are not the specific challenge the novel identifies at the General Hospitals. The text points to the sheer volume of people as the primary difficulty.
