Insecurity: World Bank Predicts Severe Food Crisis in 7 Northern Nigeria States

The bank, in its latest Food Security report, highlighted Zamfara, Kaduna, Sokoto, Borno, Adamawa and Yobe as the other six states that may battle the food crises because of insecurity that has reduced the standards of living in the regions.

This is coming amidst plans by the Katsina State Government to inaugurate a taskforce on food prices in order to curb food inflation, mass purchase and sales of the foodstuffs across the state.
