Show the answer and explanation

Answer: B (Ahab had forsaken the commandment of God by erecting an altar for Baal)

Explanation

Ahab built an altar to Baal and served him (1 Kings 16:31-33), so Elijah announced the drought; Elijah later told Ahab the trouble came because he had forsaken God's commandments and followed the Baals (18:18).
