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.
You're thinking about water. you've got maybe 3 days without water. You can survive a hell of a long time without food depending on your bodies fat stores and eventually muscle.
I'm guessing poor children in Nigeria don't have a large amount of fat and muscle to use like that.
I’m definitely not thinking about water but nice randoming shoehorning of that fact, I guess.
It does beg the question as to why, or how the kids are getting access to water but not food.
