The Kaduna State Government says its high-impact cost-effective nutrition interventions have led to a steady decline in the number of children dying of severe malnutrition in the state.
The State Nutrition Officer, Ramatu Haruna, made this known in Kaduna on Thursday at a two-day review meeting of the State Committee on Food and Nutrition.
Mrs Haruna, who was represented by the State Integrated Data Control Coordinator, Jibril Isah, explained that the number of deaths decreased from 672 in 2017 to 221 in 2018.
