The action plan was brokered by the United Kingdom and is the first G7 action plan to help save millions of lives from famine and humanitarian crises.
In a statement on Monday by the British High Commission in Abuja, the Nigerian capital, said the UK on Wednesday coordinated a landmark commitment by G7 countries to tackle the root causes of famine and address the sharply rising numbers of people in need of lifesaving aid.
“This agreement commits G7 nations to urgently provide an initial £5 billion in humanitarian assistance to 42 countries one step from catastrophe or famine, with further funding to follow over the course of this year.
The G7 countries consist of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States.
British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Laing noted that the G7 are also working together to find global solutions to global problems.
