29 children may be sentenced to death

ABUJA, Nigeria -- Twenty-nine children could be facing the death penalty in Nigeria after they were arraigned Friday for participating in a protest against the country’s record cost-of-living crisis. Four of them collapsed in court due to exhaustion before they could enter a plea.

A total of 76 protesters were charged with 10 felony counts, including treason, destruction of property, public disturbance and mutiny, according to the charge sheet seen by The Associated Press.

According to the charge sheet, the minors ranged in age from 14 to 17 years old.
 
Over 23,000 Gazan kids have been murdered by Jewish scum without protesting anything other than the occupation of their country by America's proxies.
