So from the sounds they’ve been locked up for 90 days, but bail has been posted and they won’t die? What a confusing story to follow.
Bail was set at a number but not paid so theymre still there, and $5,900USD per child, so $59,000USD is probably not exactly easier to come by in a place as fucked up for the working class as Nigeria. It said 90 days “without food”, which I struggle to believe because I don’t think we can survive three months without food, but I can easily believe that they are not getting enough to eat.
Anyway I’m not sure what you aren’t following.

I’m definitely not thinking about water but nice randoming shoehorning of that fact, I guess.
