Which excerpt from the story “Marriage Is a Private Affair” illustrates the tension between the characters best?

The statement “it is impossible for me to marry Nweke’s daughter” directly shows Nnaemeka opposing the marriage his father wants him to make. That disagreement creates tension between the characters. The other excerpts describe fear, a comment about Lagos, or a happy marriage without showing the conflict as clearly.
