Answer: The character in Achebe's Things Fall Apart that seems most haunted by the lgbo custom of leaving twins to die in the forest is B) Nwoye.

Explanation: In Achebe's Things Fall Apart, Nwoye is Okonkwo's son. He is presented as a sympathetic and sensitive man. In that way, he is considered to be very different from his father, who dislikes him for being "too effeminate". In that way, he believes that the lgbo custom of leaving twins to die in the forest for considering them an evil abomination is terrible as well as cruel. Eventually, Nwoye ends up becoming a Christian because Christians do not have a ruthless custom such as abandoning twins in a forest.

It was Nwoye that's the most haunted by the Igbo because he left the twins in the forest to die.
