WFP, USAID Stolen Food and Starving African children.

Africa's hunger crisis is not from the 'Climate Crisis'.
Kenya increased its food exports to the US, yet blamed climate change for the drought causing hunger in some regions. Additionally, the food aid donated to help starving Africans has been stolen, and children continue to starve to death in Ethiopia following the brutal genocide that took place (2020-2022).
The World Food Programme reported food looting in their Ethiopia and Sudan locations. WFP Chief Cindy McCain claimed that nearly 25% of WFP food had been stolen from their offices. The WFP and USAID suspended food aid to Ethiopia’s Tigray region (May 2023) citing theft of food meant for hungry people.
The Tigray people need help following the brutal two-year (Nov2020-Nov2022) civil war that saw people starve to death as hundreds of thousands lost their lives during this war. The WFP claimed that during the war, 428 food aid trucks went missing in Tigray.
Ironically, When Ukraine claimed that Russia was stealing their grain, USAID/WFP did not suspend operations in Ukraine. The USAID went on to state that they would ‘Help Ukraine Win the War and Build Lasting Peace’.
So why suspend operations in Ethiopia and Sudan during their wars when they need this aid the most?
How does USAID claim that there is an ‘ongoing drought’ in Kenya? They deliberately failed to mention that Kenya has had ONGOING downpour since March this year.
Currently, many of the regions in Kenya and Africa have been dealing with heavy rains and floods.
They also failed to mention that food aid received to help poor starving Africans during the past drought has been missing to date!
On March 30th 2023, Kenya’s President William Ruto was speaking at The American Chamber of Commerce, Regional Business Summit in Nairobi.
He stated that food exports to the US increased by nearly 10% last year to reach $190million. Remember that is the same country trying to convince us how bad climate change has created the food crisis in Kenya.
How then does Kenya receive ‘food aid’ from USAID? How does Kenya increase its food exports and then import grain from abroad?
These would be important areas to look at to address world hunger. Afribundance noted that hunger is not from the lack of food in Africa, but from poor distribution channels.
