The scarcity of food in Wajir District in Kenya is alarming and prospects for the rest of the year are grim. Continued crippling drought, climate change, soaring food and fuel prices have led to intensification of food crisis. The sheep and cattle have died and now the more resilient animals such as donkeys and camels are dying through lack of grazing land and waters.
Diriye Mohamed is a class one student in Dilmanyale primary school in Wajir. He is walking through the animal carcasses to his school. Last week him and other three school mate were reported to have fainted in school for having not eaten for more than three days. The NGO's in the area has tried their best to bring in a fountain of hope by suppling the schools with food stuff but still there is much to be done. you can support these people through NGO's like us (Muungano International Community) by donating anything to bring the food unrest to a halt and God will bless you
Diriye mirrors the struggle of the many other children in this region. take time and visit us through www.muunganointernational.blogspot.com and make an impact to alife.
