From land restoration to solar powered farming solutions,🌱

@WFP is working across communities in Northern #Nigeria to promote food systems.

Our work is environment friendly & protects our futures.
#HappyWorldEnvironmentDay

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

In 🇳🇬, access to nutritious food is saving lives.
On #WorldNutritionDay, Fatima & her children remind us that good nutrition means mindful eating - healing, strength & fuel for the body & mind. 

@WFP strives to ensure that the people we serve are not only fed but well-nourished.

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

In a community recovering from disaster, Falmata’s story shows resilience is about how people rise.

When floods destroyed her farm in 2024, she started afresh with @WFP’s support.

Today, she celebrates her 2nd harvest and a future rebuilt by her hands. 🌱

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

In Katsina, NW 🇳🇬, resilience is taking root.

Through smart farming, cash support & improved market systems, nearly 6,000 families & smallholder farmers are creating sustainable livelihoods —reducing dependency on humanitarian aid.

Thank you @FCDOgovUK for powering progress!🇬🇧

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

In Potiskum #Yobe🇳🇬, hope is taking root.

Communities plagued by desertification are regreening 10 ha of land via innovative resource management, with 10,000+ half-moons built & fruit trees ready to thrive.

This isn’t just tree planting; it’s planting a future.🌿

[UN Humanitarian Air Service @WFP_UNHAS]

🚁In 2025, #UNHAS Nigeria kept humanitarian action moving. From delivering life‑saving aid to hard‑to‑reach areas to ensuring safe, reliable access for partners on the frontlines, our teams stayed committed, agile, and ready

Thank you 🇨🇦🇪🇺🇰🇷🇬🇧 & to flexible donors 🇧🇪🇨🇦🇫🇷🇩🇪🇳🇱🇳🇴🇸🇪

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

In Borno🇳🇬, conflict tore families apart, but hope is rising again.

With support from @BMZ_Bund & @KfW_int through @WFP–@UNICEF joint resilience programme, families are rebuilding & children back to school.

Sustaining these gains depends on continued support. 🌿

[World Food Programme @WFP]

📍#Nigeria: Hear from @mfjhollingworth on how WFP is helping families move from food assistance to ➡️ food security.

🔵 Rice paddies are helping families grow food for themselves - and to sell at local markets.

🔵 For communities in Kondoko, this means livelihoods, stability, and a future built on resilience.

[Gates Nigeria @Gates_Nigeria]

Over 33 million Nigerians faced food insecurity during the 2025 lean season, a 32% increase from 2024. The World Food Programme is scaling up resilience programs to help families access nutritious food year-round 🌾🍲 #ZeroHunger #FoodSecurity

Some tree grafting techniques

[Matthew Hollingworth @mfjhollingworth]

I was in Nigeria 🇳🇬 last week & saw how improved irrigation & e-vouchers are helping communities rebuild with dignity despite fragility. @WFP’s impact is real, but rising needs & shrinking funding make this a critical moment for action

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

@WFP & @UNICEF_Nigeria are implementing a joint #ResilienceAndPeace project in Yobe, northeast #Nigeria, with support from @BMZ_Bund & @KfW_int.

With Yobe State Government, we’re strengthening livelihoods, education, nutrition recovery & resilient communities in NE #Nigeria.

Absolutely. The level of distraction today is unprecedented and shaping attention spans and priorities. They need to be aware and deliberately make choices, necessary to change their trajectory…

[Toyyib Adewale Adelodun @taadelodun]

At 15, my father sent me to a stranger's house at night.
It changed the trajectory of my life.

I was struggling with Maths.

In Mushin, there was one tutor everyone whispered about.

He was so good he taught the children of the wealthy privately.

Bode Omotowoju Bankole.

My father went to see him.
We couldn't afford his prices.

After much persuasion, the compromise was harder to swallow.

He would charge 100 Naira per hour
but the condition was that I had to spend the night at his place.

He needed every naira he could earn to survive as a UNILAG student.

My mother said no.

My father looked at me
and said nothing.

He hustled for the money.
And he took the risk.

Poverty does not give you perfect conditions.

At night, Bode would wake me:
"Wale, what time is it?"
"3am."

Then we did Maths for two hours.

Night after night.
For weeks.

When I returned to school, something had shifted.

I wasn't catching up.
I was flying.

In the end:

WAEC - A1 (Maths)
NECO - A1 (Maths)

Those foundations stayed with me.

They are part of why I chose Civil Engineering years later when I returned to university as an undergraduate at age 30.

This is why I struggle when I see young people refuse to engage.

This generation faces fewer barriers to knowledge than any in history.

You have:

Khan Academy
ChatGPT (Take a free prompt engineering course to know how to use it well)
World-class professors on YouTube, from India to the US

Entire calculus courses - free

What you are fighting is not scarcity.
It is DISTRACTION.

For the poor African child, the journey has always been hard by design, not by accident.

"The future you is silently depending on the current you to stay disciplined"

If this reframed something for you,
Please share it with someone you love.

And follow for more.
We will rise together.

2025 drove us here. 2026 starts with a smile.

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

Launched with @FCDOGovUK support, the Resilience Hub in Sokoto is now open. Communities can learn good agriculture practices, use processing machinery & increase incomes. From theory to practice, it builds capacity, promotes production & offers market linkages.🌱Thankyou @UKAID

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

💡Food system investments aren’t just smart, they’re transformative.
@WFP is backing solutions that reduce aid dependency, strengthen local innovation, and build lasting stability. The future of food security for #Nigeria starts here.

Let’s invest in sustainable #foodsystems.

[WFP Nigeria @WFP_Nigeria]

Thank you @BMZ_Bund & @KfW_int, for your support over the years. From flood recovery in Borno to irrigation systems in Yobe, your investments have empowered communities in Northeast Nigeria🇳🇬 to rebuild, learn & thrive.
