Abstract
There is no gainsaying that the world is facing shortage of food and this indeed is attributed to many factors that arose four years back and are still occurring up till now. Needless for me to say that COVID-19 pandemic affected people globally leading to the number of starved people by about 150 million, with Africa taking the largest percentage. Second to this again is the current Ukraine crisis, this further increases the rate of starvation in Africa, taking into consideration the following reasons: one that Russia and Ukraine are major producers of wheat which serve as the ingredients of flour, and flour serves as the major food source of bread and other related food accessories both in Africa and beyond. Two, Russia is a major producer and manufacturer of fertilizer to many countries in Africa, and food growth and survival depends heavily on fertilizer as a major booster. Hence, the current war is reducing drastically food sustainability in Africa.
