Nigeria: Acute Malnutrition
Two million children are suffering from acute malnutrition in Nigeria, with only 20% receiving the treatment they desperately need, contributing to 45% of child deaths under five. The North-East and North-West regions are hardest hit, with millions of children and pregnant women facing malnutrition due to poor food access, unsafe water, and the ongoing effects of conflict. The Nigerian Red Cross Society is on the ground providing vital health, nutrition, and protection services, but urgent funding is needed to scale up their efforts.
