BREAKING!!! United Nations Technically Passes A Vote-Of-No-Confidence On President Bola Tinubu’s Administration, Ahead Of The 2027 Elections; Raises Fresh Alarm; Reveals That More Than 17 Million Northerners Have Been Pushed Closer To Starvation Under The Current APC Presidency; The Worst In The History Of Nigeria’s Democracy
The United Nations, UN, on Friday, raised fresh concerns over Nigeria’s worsening humanitarian crisis, warning that more than 17 million people across Northern Nigeria, are facing severe hunger, with insecurity, displacement and dwindling humanitarian support, pushing millions closer to starvation under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration.
According to the United Nations World Food Programme, WFP, Northern Nigeria is experiencing one of its worst food crisis in nearly a decade. A recent Cadre Harmonisé food security assessment found that more than 17 million people across conflict-affected Northern States, are facing crisis, emergency or catastrophic levels of food insecurity.
The UN stated that Borno State remains the epicentre of the crisis, where millions require urgent humanitarian assistance. It warned that worsening insecurity, attacks on farming communities, restricted humanitarian access and severe funding shortages, have combined to deepen the sufferings of millions.
Expressing concern over the deteriorating situation, the WFP Regional Director for West and Central Africa, Kinday Samba, said:
“What concerns us most is how this crisis is expanding.
“For years, insurgent attacks and violence were largely concentrated in parts of North-East Nigeria. Today, they are spreading across a much wider area, and forcing people from farmlands, driving displacement and restricting humanitarian access, meaning hunger is quick to follow.”
The UN also disclosed that although 6.2 million people across Borno, Adamawa and Yobe States, urgently require food assistance, available resources are sufficient to reach only a fraction of those in need, leaving millions of vulnerable Nigerians in the North, without life-saving support.
The report has renewed scrutiny of President Bola Tinubu’s administration, as Nigerians continue to grapple with rising food prices, persistent insecurity and worsening economic hardship.
Behind the UN figure, 17 million people facing severe hunger are children going to bed without food, mothers unable to feed their babies, farmers driven from their ancestral lands by violence, and elderly people struggling to survive each passing day.
Warning of the consequences, Samba said: “When people lose access to food, the risks of displacement, exploitation and instability, increase. Yet resources are at their lowest at the time they are needed most.”
The UN’s latest warning therefore, serves as both a humanitarian alarm and a challenge to President Tinubu.
As the country moves towards the 2027 general elections, the growing hunger crisis is likely to become one of the key issues by which many Nigerians assess the President Tinubu administration’s handling of the economy, security and welfare of the citizens across all regions of the country.
