A. like a father, and it will be a long and hard time - Wrong comparison. Shows that the entire nation has lost someone while being in the capacity of a father
B. like a father, and it will be a long, hard time - Same error as A
C. who was like a father and it will be a long hard time - The comparison is fine now. Showing that the nation has lost someone and that someone was like a father. But, it has Parallelism issue with 'and', what does the pronoun 'it' refers to?
D. like a father, and it will be a long and a hard time - Same error as A
E. who was like a father, and it will be a long and hard time -Correct comparison. Showing that the nation has lost someone and that someone was like a father. Also, now the two independent clause are connected properly using ",and"
