This question is based on Kabir Garba's The Lekki Headmaster.
Why was the Government teacher named 'Owala'?
"Owala" is a derogatory Yoruba appellation for a person with wild facial marks. Mr. Ayesoro was popular for the deep tribal marks he flaunted on his face. This can be found on page 22 of the novel.
