The correct answer is:

C. the excessive zeal of the new converts under Reverend Smith.

Enoch is a fanatical convert to the Christian church in Umuofia. During a ceremony, he ripped the mask off an egwugwu, leading to a confrontation between the indigenous and colonial justice systems. Since the beginning, Mr. Brown means to keep Enoch in check in order to maintain harmony in the community. However, Reverend Smith approves of Enoch´s zealotry.
