41% OF OUR CHILDREN ARE STUNTED: FAMILIES CAN NO LONGER AFFORD GOOD FOOD UNDER TINUBU — ATIKU
Atiku says Nigeria must attack the high cost of fuel, transportation and food, insisting his production-subsidy proposal is designed to put affordability back at the centre of economic policy.
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has described Nigeria’s worsening child-malnutrition figures as one of the most disturbing manifestations of the country’s cost-of-living crisis, warning that economic hardship is no longer merely emptying the pockets of parents but threatening the physical development and future of millions of Nigerian children.
Latest figures presented by nutrition experts show that 41.1 per cent of Nigerian children under five are stunted, 19.2 per cent are severely stunted, and the prevalence of stunting rises to 58.2 per cent in the North-West. Nearly two million children are also reported to be suffering severe acute malnutrition, with only about two in every ten receiving treatment.
