Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) says it treated more than 87,000 children for acute malnutrition in Katsina State between January and August 2026. The figure comes from an MSF report referenced by Nigerian outlets.
Both sources describe the treatments as outpatient care for acute malnutrition, covering the same eight-month period. The reports do not specify deaths, outcomes, or the broader drivers of malnutrition, focusing instead on the scale of children supported in Katsina during that timeframe.
