Humanitarian situation in Nigeria 2021

More than five million people in the Northern Nigerian states of Adamawa, Borno, and Yobe are believed to suffer from acute food insecurity. The high food insecurity is due mainly to the COVID-19 impact and the related shortage on the supply chain, the general adverse economic condition in particular in the North-East, the high prices of food, the internal conflicts, and the high terrorism alert, as well as shortfalls and floods. Indeed, over 190 thousand people in Nigeria have been affected by the floods that occurred during 2020.

据信，尼日利亚北部阿达马瓦、博尔诺和约贝三个州超过五百万人遭受着严重的粮食不安全。粮食不安全的高发主要归因于COVID-19疫情的影响及其对供应链的连锁反应，尤其是东北部地区普遍的经济困境，食品价格的飙升，内部冲突，以及高等级的恐怖主义警报，加之短缺和洪水灾害。实际上，在2020年期间发生的洪水已导致尼日利亚超过十九万人受到影响。
