This question is based on ‘The Lekki Headmaster’. What was Bepo’s emotional state when he witnessed the mysterious actions of the men at the school?
Explanation
Formal letter format: senders address (top right), date, recipients address (left), salutation (Dear Sir/Madam), body paragraphs, closing (Yours faithfully/sincerely), signature.
“Yours faithfully” follows “Dear Sir/Madam” (unknown recipient). “Yours sincerely” follows a name (Dear Mr. Smith). This distinction matters in formal contexts.
Maintain formal tone throughout: no contractions, no slang, polite language. Purpose should be clear in the first paragraph. Request/conclusion in final paragraph.
