Nigeria: Millions of children face acute hunger | BBC News


Around 4.4 million children under the age of five in northern Nigeria are acutely malnourished, according to the United Nations’ World Food Programme.

That’s more than double last years figures, the organisation says.

  1. It's time that the BBC go and approach that government and ask them what are they doing about this matter,cause to my knowledge every now and one must hear how advance and how productive that country is not to mention all the precious minerals they are sitting on.The BBC must stop their nonsense by promoting the innocent and must rather approach those culprit governments of such countries to start looking after their citizens.

  2. I wonder why the Deputy Governor would dispute the numbers without providing reliable ones! I am from these places and I know how badly banditry affected us and our families, last 10 years in Katsina you hardly can see people begging. Today those who owned farms are forced out of their villages and or killed.. This feels so personal to me because I know people whom have been killed. I remember my friends forced to flee to as far as Libya of all places! Nigeria has become unbearable for local man! The Deputy Governor shouldnt have disputed the numbers instead he should have acknowledged our sufferings and do more to tackle it…. Northisbledding, #katsinafarmerscantfarm#endbanditry

  3. They shouldn't be facing hunger. No one in the world should go hungry. Us of America produces enough food to feed the world 7× over!

    This is all planned! It's the devils agenda to starve out the world knocking population off! Its politicians and governments all over the world that cause this!

  4. Bullshit and we all know it now. They come into our country that feeds and looks after them and then butchers our children. They make sure they use somebody under 18 so they will not be charged and get a slap on the wrist. So they can be out on the street killing again. They are not stupid. They know the system and know we are a stupid liberal (one world government under the world forum … which politicians are getting paid very very well to sell us out ). Are you old enough to think back 20-30 years ago when the country used to be peaceful and we had safety, low crime rate…a future to look forward to ..prosperity? You can call me a conspiracy theorist, but the only difference between that and reality is about six months. Has been proven over and over and over again in the last couple of years.

  5. Lies Lies Lies, Londonstan at it again!! Britain remove the log from your eyes so you can see better to remove the speck in Nigeria’s eyes. Hypocrites you haven’t solved the mess the uk is and yet you interviewed a few people that automatically translates to millions. 😂🤣 you guys are 🤡🤡🤡🤡 nothing but. Btw what you are facing in GB is child’s play, those people ☺️ ( you know who I mean) have a lot in store for you.

  6. Turecko zabije miliony mírumilovných psů
    Na přemnožení a hladové psy existují i jiná řešení.

    Pejsky zaregistruji a dám jim jídlo s antikoncepcí.
    Že psi zabíjejí slepice:
    Nezabíjí domácí drůbež lidi jen pro peníze? musíte je ohradit slepice!
    Kompromis: Zavři psa na měsíc, pochopí a nezabije kuře!!!
