Well if he's going that far, may as well go get a lathe from market place, then find an appropriate hardwood block. He can lathe the block into a nice cylinder, making sure grain of the wood runs in the same direction (lengthwise). Then use the center drill action on the lathe to carve out the exact diameter of the broomstick. Then he can jam the broken pieces into it with some 3x strength wood glue.
It should hold until he wants to replace the broomstick in 20-30 years.

Make a splint using some duct tape and spare thin wood parts (or grab a few branches from a tree). That will tide you over until you get tired of looking at an ugly broom and buy a new broom stick.
