PROJECT #73312 REPORT

By Sylvester Egwu | PROFESSOR

Nigeria  is facing  an unprecedented hunger crisis  with over 43 million people projected to be food insecure in 2025 including 16 million children. 

The situation is dire especially in the North , middle belt,Southsouth and  Southeast of Nigeria where arned terrorists and  bandits have taken over the forests and farmlands. The farmers  have abandoned farming  due to fears of terrorist attacks  and killings.

But able youths are confronting the terrorists  and bandits particularly  in the  South where EARN 's project is located to empower them to farm.

Nigeria  was ranked second poorest in food affordability globally by the Institute of Development Studies in United Kingdom. In July 2025, The United Nations reported that nearly  31 million Nigerians were experiencing acute food insecurity. 

This project is ained at empowering unemployed youth to farm , improve food supply att affordable cost and  mitigate hunger.

Surprisingly, the response and support to this  life saving project have not been met with donations. To date ,only $25  has been donated and we appealing  to GlobalGiving to assist us  to generate humanitarian support.
