Answer:

PART A: How does meeting the old man in prison most affect Nnamabia?

A.  It makes Nnamabia understand the extent of injustice present in the prison system.

Explanation:

Nnamabia is the spoilt and mischievous first son of his parents, who live in the university town of Nsukka.  The father is a professor at the university.  Note: in Nigeria, many first sons are spoilt.  Is it the same in your clime?

Spoilt by his mother as the first son, Nnamabia commits many crimes which finally landed him in prison.  In Cell One, he met an old man being unjustly abused and maltreated by the prison guards.  This maltreatment enraged Nnamabia, prompting him to caution the guards.  This singular act landed him into more trouble and hardship with the guards.

It is the meeting with the old man and his reactions to the guards, including subsequent punishment meted to him that finally made Nnamabia to understand the injustice present in the Nigerian prison system.

This short story was written by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie in her 2007 collection titled, "The Thing Around Your Neck."

Khalil’s shooting and the ongoing investigation of Officer Cruise put the theme of injustice at the forefront of the novel. The fact that Khalil was unarmed and did not threaten the officer makes his murder unjust. The police are unjust at other points, too, such as when they force Maverick to the ground and pat him down. Race is tied into this theme of injustice as well, since pervasive racism prevents African-Americans from obtaining justice. Starr and Maverick in particular are focused on bringing justice not only for Khalil but also for African-Americans and other oppressed groups, such as the poor. The activist group that Starr joins is called Just Us for Justice because it fights against police maltreatment on the basis of race. At the end of the novel, Starr accepts that injustice might continue but reinforces her determination to fight against it.
