Medical humanitarian organization Médecins Sans Frontières /Doctors Without Borders (MSF) warned on Thursday that a growing, yet largely ignored, malnutrition crisis is unfolding in northwest Nigeria since January threatening millions of children.
MSF in a statement said working in partnership with Nigerian health authorities in five northwestern states, they have already treated more than 50,000 children with acute malnutrition, including 7,000 who required hospital care.
