'More than 3 million people have food insecurity and an equal high number of children are suffering from acute malnutrition.'

and the ECOWAS, Samuela Isopi, has said that over two million people remained displaced from their homes in the North-east of the country.

The documentary ”HOPE” was based on the ravaging effects of insurgency on displaced populations in Northern Nigeria. Ms Isopi said she was happy and proud of the premiere since it was her first official public event, after presenting her Letters of Credence to President Muhammadu Buhari on Monday morning.

“A decade after the start of the insurgency in the northeast of Nigeria, the region is still suffering from the loss of lives and property, food insecurity and a very poor standard of living. She added that the EU, as Nigeria’s partners in development, has committed about 130 million euros over the past four years to assist the Nigerian government in rebuilding, rehabilitation and peace efforts.

Also speaking, the Humanitarian Affairs Minister, Sadiya Farouq, agreed with the EU envoy about the importance of food security saying that the ministry, through the North-east Development Commission was seriously addressing this issue.
