Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetNortheastern Nigeria: Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states. Response overview (November 2023) 2023
Also available in:
No results found.The latest Cadre Harmonisé analysis (November 2023) indicate that over 26.5 million are projected to be in high acute food insecurity (June-August 2024) across 26 states analysed in Nigeria and in the Federal Capital Territory, including 4.38 million in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, if appropriate assistance is not provided. Protracted armed conflict, insecurity, climates shocks such as floods and dry spells, record high food and agricultural input prices, impact of fuel subsidy removal and the devaluation of the local currency are still the main drivers of the deteriorating food security and nutrition situation in northeastern Nigeria. Urgent funding is required to provide life-saving emergency agricultural support, tailored to the needs and preferences of the affected people, during the current dry season, as well as to begin the procurement of seeds and other inputs in time for the next year’s rainy season. Most crisis-affected households in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe are smallholder farmers who depend on agriculture for their livelihoods. Providing them with essential inputs is fundamental to the humanitarian response. -

No results found.Increased violence and forced displacement continue to affect the humanitarian situation in northeastern Nigeria – the key hotspot of the armed conflict in the country – that has been further aggravated by trade disruptions and an economic decline linked to the effects of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The latest Cadre Harmonisé analysis (March 2021) indicates that 9.2 million people countrywide face crisis or worse levels of food insecurity (March–May 2021), of whom 3.2 million in Adamawa, Borno and Yobe states. This figure is expected to increase to over 12.8 million people, of whom 4.4 million in the three northeastern states, during June–August 2021, unless resilience-focused and humanitarian actions are taken. Climate change and variability, limited access to agricultural land and high food prices are also adversely affecting the food security and nutrition in the northeastern states. With the deterioration of the food security situation and an increased risk of famine in areas of Borno state, providing agricultural inputs to the most vulnerable households in time for the planting season starting in June is crucial to quickly increase food availability and access. In addition, livestock rearing and aquaculture interventions mitigate the risk of seasonal crop failure and other climate-related shocks, underlining the importance of diversifying livelihoods production and income sources. Finally, providing fuel-efficient stove production support will mitigate risks linked to malnutrition, protection, deforestation, health and communal tensions over natural resources. -

Also available in:
No results found.Nigeria faces a severe food crisis. The protracted armed insurgency in northeastern Nigeria has displaced thousands of people, leaving them without the means to produce food and increasing their dependency on humanitarian aid. Most rely on agriculture for subsistence, including up to 90 percent of rural households in the Northeast who keep goats. Vaccinating a goat costs only USD 1, and can save an asset worth USD 64 that provides milk to a child daily.
