TVC News Nigeria gives us a report on malnutrition in Nigeria

UNICEF is calling for a sustained effort to improve the nutrition of mothers and children in Nigeria. Juliet Chikuwe, Chief of UNICEF’s Enugu Field Office, made the call in Enugu. Stating good nutrition is essential for the health and development of children. It is also essential for their physical growth and cognitive development. It also helps protect from diseases. Unfortunately, in Nigeria, many children are not getting the nutrition they need. This is due to a number of factors, including poverty, poor diets, and inadequate access to healthcare. “We must do more to improve the nutrition of mothers and children in Nigeria,” Chikuwe concluded.
