Title:
NIGERIA - Humanitarian and Food Security Response to Mitigate the Effects of Floods
Detail:
This proposal directly responds to the recent call by President Bola Tinubuwho, on September 16th announced a disaster relief fund in Maiduguri, Borno State, to assist Nigerian citizens impacted by floods. Following this appeal for humanitarian assistance from cooperating partners, the African Development Bank has partnered with WFP to submit this proposal for funds under the Bank’s Special Relief Fund (SRF), to provide emergency assistance that will enable the partnership to complement the Government's response and provide lifesaving assistance to the food-insecure populations affected by the impact of floods. This request fits within the parameters of AfDB's revised policy guidelines procedures for emergency relief assistance (ADB/BD/WP/2008/211/Rev.1–ADF/BD/WP/2008/173/Rev.1). The project contributes to climate finance, with 1 million USD of the total approved amount dedicated to adaptation.
