The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) has warned that the food and nutrition crisis might deepen in Nigeria, as the country has already been flagged as having the highest number of malnourished children in Africa and the second highest in the world. “Nigeria has the highest number of malnourished children in Africa and the second in the world,” Nemat Hajeebhoy, Chief of Nutrition at UNICEF, said. She disclosed that 600,000 children in Nigeria are suffering from acute malnutrition, and half of them are at risk of developing severe acute malnutrition. “Children with severe acute malnutrition are nine to 11 times more likely to die,” she added. Serigne Loum, Head of Programme at the World Food Programme (WFP), also warned of worsening conditions. “Nigeria has the highest number of food insecure people on the continent,” he stated. https://saharareporters.com/2025/05/05/unicef-says-nigeria-has-most-malnourished-children-africa-second-highest-globally
