DONATE NOW TO PROVIDE NOURISHING AND LIFE-SUSTAINING FOOD BARS TO REDUCE HUNGER
A March 2024 Cadre Harmonisé (CH) food and nutrition analysis estimates that 4.8 million people in Nigeria’s north-east states are at risk of severe hunger at the peak of this year’s lean season (June-August) if urgent actions are not taken.
According to the report, the key drivers of the deteriorating food security situation include rising inflation, insecurity (insurgency, kidnapping and banditry), and high fuel prices, compounded by the effects of climate-related shocks across the country.
To address the food crisis across the country, the federal government of Nigeria declared a national food security emergency in July 2023. At least 63% of Nigeria's 220 million population lives in extreme poverty and many Nigerians have had to give up products considered a luxury, such as meat, eggs, milk and potato.
The national food crisis threatens to become catastrophic without immediate and coordinated intervention. The prices of staple foods like beans and maize have increased by 300 to 400 per cent over the past year following the removal of the fuel subsidy and the depreciation of the naira. Inflation is outpacing the ability of families to cope, making essential food items unaffordable.
Malnutrition rates are of great concern. Approximately 700,000 children under five are projected to be acutely malnourished over the next six months, including 230,000 who are expected to be severely acutely malnourished and at risk of death if they do not receive timely treatment and nutrition support.
