Nigeria floods worsen food shortages

Flooding and heavy rains are affecting many parts of Nigeria.

Dozens of people have been killed and crops have been lost, raising fears of a food shortage.

As the rains peak in a few weeks’ time, many farming communities living in Nigeria’s fertile basins are bracing for more losses, with wider implications on country’s agricultural output.
