Answer: leaving the twins to die in the forest.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is leaving the twins to die in the forest because the moment when Nwoye finds out about Ikemefuna's death, something changes inside him. He analizes the inclination that he encountered the day that a child was crying in the woodland and he heard him. The custom of leaving twins in the backwoods to kick the bucket was an horrible suggestion to him.
