The lean season is underway across the region and food insecurity remains high. In north-eastern Nigeria, some 5.2 million people are struggling with acute food shortages. Around 1.5 million people in Cameroon’s Far North region, 123,000 in Chad and 340,000 in Niger are also acutely food insecure. Funding shortfalls for food assistance programmes in north-east Nigeria have forced cut-backs and readjustments. The rainy season is also ongoing, compounding difficulties faced by the displaced. More than 5.6 million children across the region are at an increased risk of contracting waterborne diseases, while flooding and roads rendered impassable due to downpours are expected to limit humanitarian access to remote localities. Separately, hundreds of Nigerian refugees continue to make their way back from Cameroon. Since mid-April, more than 13,000 have returned to towns and localities in north-eastern Nigeria, overstretching the already inadequate infrastructure and services. Aid organisations are providing emergency assistance and preparing long-term response. From Niger, more than 11,000 Nigerian refugees have 1% 4% 3% 4% reportedly returned to Damassak town, but much of the movements are back-and-forth.
