eagle india in 60 minutes on d w. oh, what people have to say matters to us. mm. mm. that's why we listen to their stories reporter every weekend on d w. and this is the that the news africa coming up on the program. fiesta grew for food security in africa, asked a conflict in ukraine rages on a worry in time for the continent ask essential supplies ad i via text from places like somalia, a country already unable to feed its people due to decades of devastating drought. people in kenya also struggling to make ends meet as the price of food and other

basics shoot up. we look at their courses, i'm asked one expands how he things the problem could be solved. the 1st thing is for us to address cost because we cannot continue to depending on food from the rest of the world. africa should be the household food to the rest of the world. and aren't these amazing designs. it's all thanks to the 1st african to be awarded . the most prestigious architecture prize is works on integration to meaning in and out of africa. ah, i am eddie micah genia. and you are welcome to the program. many countries on the continental impacted by food insecurity, but here's a staggering number for you. the u. n says one in 5 africans is on the norrish.

it's close to 300000000 people facing starvation out seems a conflict in europe is about to make matters worse. the i m f this week said quote, the war in ukraine means hunger in africa. the wealth food program is also wanting of catastrophe. see, in half of the green it uses to feed the needy originates in ukraine. when not only that, it has also been forced to slash aid to some african countries because of the crisis . we're show short of funds already, and now with ukraine. we've got we've got 50 percent ration for people, for example, in yemen. i've just cut 50 percent ration for 8000000 people these year. 50 percent red chair, 50 percent red in 50 percent. don't have anything. those who are in extreme need. so it's already having a global impact. we've already seen countries, right before ukraine crisis begin to destabilize like molly cherokee, to fossil,

in my opinion, this side of things to come. we'll discuss this further with a representative of the united nations development program in a moment. but let's 1st go to somalia, where an almost forgotten humanitarian catastrophe is now severely aggravated by food aid being diverted elsewhere. somalia is experienced in its worst drought in 4 decades. millions are starving and being forced to leave the homes, bearing the brunt our children. i want in some view as might find the photo in pictures disturbing about them. we are only 5 kilometers away from our ship up control territory. the islamist terrorist group has a tight grip on somalia. daily attacks have become normal. but tara is not the reason why roughly 30000 people live in this camp. the drought has made their villages uninhabitable. to hara ali lost all her cows due to the drought. she

has no food for her 4 year old daughter, as unavailable i overnight ago. what my daughter is getting worse every day. she can't keep anything down and is vomiting i was, oh yeah, you know, i tried to give her tea and powdered milk, but she gets diarrhea straight away. well, not that they are like, as soon as i am, there is no medicine in the camp. visiting doctors decide little obama has to go to a hospital immediately. and she owes warren of a humanitarian catastrophe. almost every one here was a cattle farmer until the drought killed their animals. 3 rainy seasons in a row have failed. somali on the moment that is facing climate disaster manifesting itself in displacement of mossy populations, filling their homes in search of life. saving us is found in the hospital in the

city of ki smile, malnourished children, receive treatment more than 10 have been admitted to day. and the number is growing the next morning, we want to check on little obama again that the news is bad. we find out that the 4 year old girl did not survive the night alone, but either to put a glass or linton after morning prayers. she died here, she lost a lot of fluids and hadn't eaten at all. what happened? i will remember her as a happy girl. she always laughed with her siblings. while her head there was little increasing numbers of children are falling ill because they do not have enough to eat. but so far, way to little health has arrived. one reason is under funding, we are hopeless to them. we can't do anything for them. those people who are been

afflicted and they are monday through should they love their livestock, we are not doing anything for them. w. s p says the problem is being exacerbated by the war in ukraine. food supplies coming from there have dwindled in some aid intended for somalia has been re directed to ukraine. there's a number of donors at the beginning. they already told us there's some commodities are coming, heading towards us. those committees were already diverted in this, in the see her heading to ukraine to her is now worried about her 2nd child at the fetter. he's also acutely malnourished. on a good day, the family gets one meal, but too often they go to bed hungry. let's talk more about this with, are you delay or diesel? our residents representative and director africa financing to have with the united nations development program. he were to book an african agriculture potential performance lessons on that challenge. as hello said, thanks for your time. now. food supplies are urgently needed in somalia,

about this, eat as being diverted to ukraine due to the ongoing war. so who decides who lives and who dies in such situations. thank you very much. what, what is important is that the available resources dedicated to countries, daily sources available, jewel somalia may be in short supply on the basis of the nate. and my call is that on the basis of what the or that you and it is, is that doing not only the what, what program alone is to impose their budget, what is yet to support to monetary and made all the you any differences that are present i that i work in somalia, i now it is possible seen early programming the budget to support these home until yeah, me, but i just my, my call is to what boy, i mean to call on international communities to support the country on the current co monetary on it, which is the idea would have over 3 me about 3000000 people and they didn't who

monetary assistance with the 300000 that you been on the 5. so we want to really call on international community to support. and also we move to that want to see what we can do to mobilize from a private, international organization to support the situation in somalia. not only in terms of human interior, but also in terms of technical support so that we can build resilience. they come and look on the capacity of that. so my land to be able to really put news food that they would need and become ok. export that to the recipe. ok, i mean, you mentioned the numbers yourself. the asked, staggering to say the least, what really goes into such the sessions. oh, well they, what goes into the decisions or is it biotech? what is the budget regular budget of the liberal jewel? it is what we want to go beyond that. because what we want to do is now to bring the international private sector on board. so that exam mobilize resources from all

the actors that are even supporting who material in a system, including the catholic religion did by letter board called by law tried owners to come and support. and we need to really sure the reality on the ground is to my left for us to be able to will believe more resources that will go into this. so it might lead to international community for us to really find the will making sure this is related surely. now clearly dependency on foreign aid is not the way to go . so what is stopping african countries from growing most of its own food? when there is so much arable land. well, political literacy is what really matters. because we have seen that in countries where political leadership is very strong and i get quarter our transformation, particularly the implement implementation of the comprehensive african africa agricultural development program. it has been quite results oriented,

but more local, for instance, actually the green man article plan has succeeded in turn in this issue will monitor an issue with crisis into i know what to do for food experts. so this is really going on there. and also we have been a lot of times, we certainly feel about it that the good, where they have really, really commercialized agriculture, agriculture. you'll be on the, for the current crisis, committed to train at least $1000000.00. i mean, to commercialize 1000000 farmers must get a farmer for the next 5 years and nobody private is sorted in commercial. i think 3500000 pharma ok commercialized pharma is where at least 90 percent of the firm produce is sold in the market as opposed to 10 percent in the past. there's so many areas to dig to dig into this. i. mr. old whistler, please stay with us that we have more to talk about regarding food security. another reason why people can i get enough to eat is simply because the prices are

higher than the above are been the you and estimates that people in sub saharan africa are now paying 30 to 40 per cent more than the rest of the world. in kenya, the hashtag low food prices has been trending for a while now. prizes for bread and oil have shot up in the last 3 years. many kenyans are struggling to make ends meet as our correspondence reports. ah, we are given market here in a row be and it's a busy day as usual, shabazz here see that these days they're not able to buy food because the prices of food have become too high. really get us from. when i go to the supermarket, i just live with there one kid you bug mysql and the small pocket of milk and that zoe run out of cash. i hope they pray this could be lowered so that i can be able to provide food for my children. we're talking about basic foods that lower income families rely on like the rice and beans and oil, which has become 20 percent more expensive than it was just once. we get us up

plays at very high praises. hence we are forced to sell a type praises. so that we can make at least small profit margins. if you sell at lower praises you and ran into losses and yet this is business. there's no way i can lower the praises, but i don't really love to canyon. i agree about the situation and they've been using the hashtag, lawford prizes to blame the governments. what got to us, i meant to look what dockwood were china monday. justin, im used to tick t and my we no longer take badly out because it's not a math for you to take lunch every month. and even when you want to, your last you simply can't afford are we have been forced to feed on just one minute. please do not want to watch one meal, but they are fully known gazelle calling on, in marvellously regarding food. praises increase due to government inadequacy. uncles the i've noticed him lend process to ensure that food for not like many killers, continue to hope that the government, when she do surprises on basically what do you do?

this is an election year in canada with i usually do sla, thanks for sticking with us. you are also an economist, like many other countries. food prices are skyrocketing in kenya. what is driving prices up? thank you very much. in career, we have multiple things that i really shipping the change in price in prices. climate change is one of them. the supply chain that has been broken and as a result of 19 over the years in terms of where the food is coming from is another . and the 3rd one is the management issue. the issue associated to the management of the grid is of the national to put his vote, which i think needs to be really adjusted. so what i need to do particularly now is to really release part of the results into the public because they have

a now is one of the very few countries on the continent that has a reserve. so the need to do this by making sure that they release into the market so that the price is come down, that people can easily be f i could afford. this is one of the things that needed to be done. and also the need to really find a way of making sure they are void, the kind of damages, because all of us talking, the greens were more than the light of the green. for instance, about 4400000 bytes of green were destroyed recently because it's almost about it. yes, in the distorted system. so we need to avoid this because we should all be destroying people should be in it, which will push it to the market today. and the price, the price, and then it will be affordable to people. ok, very well noted. so you mentioned earlier there is that climate crisis covered 19 conflicts in and out of africa. all of these are contributing to food insecurity on

the continent. so what should african nations do to avoid a humanitarian catastrophe? the 1st thing is for us to address the hood caustics, because we cannot continue to depend on food from the rest of the world. africa should be the powerhouse of food to the rest of the world. fair to have to deal with the issue of crisis. this a has good in crises with very long time. we need to put an end to it. the book i'm in a room most talk because for almost about 3 more than 3. yes. now i have not been able to go to farm am, produce the way they have been doing. so this is affecting it. we need to put an end to rate. this is very important. and also we need to invest heavily in climate smart agriculture, where drought with crops dow rest is done, animals are really invested in and that will be able to release the state of the server and that is going on. and we need to invest heavily to in empire and small

scale partners so that they have access to market access to input, including fertilizer, tractors, and chemicals, and also access to to land. because if they don't have access to land renting on land, we couldn't from investing heavily on their land. so this is very important and strongly believe that the need for subsidy to be able to deal with these issues that are going to produce em us very well know, ted or your daily or do so law where the united nations development program. thank you very much for your insights. ah, hold your watching. did all the news africa still to come? daring to dream in lagos, nigeria, we visit a free library that has given kids hope for a brighter future and be prepared to be blown away. these amazing designs have made him the 1st african to be awarded the most prestigious

architecture prize. that before we get to that, it's been 2 months since the west african original block echo us imposed sanctions on molly. that was after marley's military leaders announced they would remain in power for another 5 years before holding any elections. the result and sanctions are the strictest echo as us imposed so far on our steed abuse flourish trigger, i found out it civilians. why hits the hottest new buildings springing up in every corner? this is, by marco's growing business district. but the growth has slowed down because cement has become very scarce. echo, as has suspended all non essential treat between member countries. and molly, and this includes cement one of my lease biggest in ports glena. moma says look at our deposit. there is nothing left in it at all because of the

sanctions crisis. we couldn't buy anything because it became too expensive, and customers can no longer afford to buy because of rising prices. and what is now, karla will says, if i tell my union, most of the cement used here is gotten from senegal and ivory coast. so truck loads of cement, another attempts have been stuck at the borders for weeks. another function that is heating, molly hard, is the closure of all air and land borders with miley. this has halted travel between miley and neighboring states. this is the biggest boss park in miley before the saint charles heath this entire road used to be lined with what these and passing does traveling what we've been an around west africa region. but now as you can see, there isn't much activity going on here. because the buses are not allowed to cross

the borders, drivers have to be heavy duty to butter officials in order to cross. the costs is passed on to the passengers, but very few of them can afford the cannibal, but the light blue. mm hm. possibly regardless as a big problem, because the bus itself doesn't earn enough income, can't pay for gasoline or pay the drivers and still make a profit for alumni on through allotted. oh wow. the gov meant in miley insists on remaining in power for 5 more years. is the milan people and small businesses that will continue to be at the bronze of the sanctions our next story takes us to one of the biggest slums in lagos, nigeria, particularly to her part where some children find peace, quiet, and books. thanks to a small free library in the neighbourhood, did abuse america or coin met one ambitious teenager who feeds his mind and dreams

in the library. today is a bad day. his mother doesn't have enough money to pay for school. so this boy called me rico will go and try to sell bananas bunch by bondage follow. so our kids fall, if i don't sell bananas for a week and we won't have the money to buy food, we won't have money for school. we will be stranded. and we will die of hunger at home. but once he leaves home heat and stress lou his day heavier than the bananas east, the responsibility to sell them. he is only 15, but miracle is his mother's oldest son. he has to make the $10.00 or so the tree. it's worth it is too dangerous for us to film in the most crowded parts of the slum . but miracle goes everywhere to sell bananas. hoppy,

no one will rob him. what he really wants to do though is to feed his mind for that he goes to the library and i yeah, home at about 4 pm. go straight to the library and stay till about 7 pm hallmarkco . i go to the library to read, to type on the computers and for some quiet. i like to retire. i want to become an engineer and make enough money to make ends meet and have a better life. of being a walk or less hippa, greece, the set of the library, the or jiggle islam to help children like miracle. this chagrin, library and discovery st. her was set up for children that you're going to ship life and transform our community culture such that that you've been discriminated to not to in the line of crime drugs. it's pregnancy, prostitution, and other such an anomaly that we're typically known for. nigeria has been rated as

one of the countries in the world with the lowest reading culture, and that's by ward catullus coy index, meaning that 30 percent of nigerians among retreats as for in every 10 children in primary school cannot read for comprehension. now, libraries live, this is not read in the gap so that children like these with huge streams of very little resources can afford to be in one miracle. and his friends have nourished their dreams for to day. to morrow. we'll distress said in bananas and trying to feed his comedy again. ah, now let's talk about the man of the moment. looking, a fossil born architect debated. frances carrie has become the 1st african to be awarded the fritz sca architecture prize. that is architectures most prestigious
