how do i adjust my front drum brake?

[Divy]

i snapped my front brake lever off my pitpro110 yesturday so i chucked a bmx lever an holder on but now with it on i cant pull the lever back to brake
even if i adjust them really loose it pulls back a little bit but then it wont brake because its loose so does any one know whats going on??
can some one tell me how to adjust it right oh an its a drum not disc

or do i just buy a new one that i broke
i would prefure the bmx one cause its a two finger brake lever so its small an dont get in the way
