I think the answer is letter b. The Nigerian government purposely targeted Biafran boys..

Based from the story, many people died during the civil war. Jonathan’s son was one of the civilians who have died. The Nigerian Civil War was a war between Biafra and Nigeria when Biafra had fought for their secession.
