The United Nations Children’s Fund UNICEF has disclosed plans to reduce workforce and travel as part of measures to mitigate the effect of the cut of USAID funding by the Trump administration.
The UNICEF Regional Director for West and Central Africa, Gilles Fagninou, made the disclosure on Monday during an assessment visit to some of the organisation’s ongoing programmes at the Hajj Camp in Maiduguri, Borno State.
He said UNICEF is working closely with various governments in Africa to see how they can collaborate and mitigate the effect of the funding cut by US, President, Donald Trump.
