2-year-old severely malnourished boy being treated by UNICEF
Two year-old
Abubakar pictured with his mother, who lives in Kano State, is one of the more
than 400,000 children UNICEF has treated for severe acute malnutrition.
Wife of the
President, Mrs. Aisha Buhari was so shocked by UNICEF reports that a staggering
2.5 million Nigerian children are suffering from severe acute malnutrition that she
recently launched an initiative to fight child malnutrition in Nigeria.
Mrs. Buhari’s ‘Get
Involved’ initiative is looking for the support of ordinary Nigerians and will
also be working with the private sector, development partners, non-governmental
organisations and UNICEF to help end child malnurition in the country.
