Eight million pEoplE in northErn nigEria facing acutE food insEcurity
T he October 2016 analysis of the Cadre harmonisé1 expands its
coverage to include for the first time 16 out of 36 states, almost half of Nigeria. In these states, some eight million people are currently facing acute food insecurity (phases 3-5, October-December 2016). Due to the Boko Haram insurgency and massive population displacement, the three northeastern states, Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, have

reached extremely high levels of food insecurity (Maps & Facts no 44). While humanitarian access is improving, the situation remains particularly worrisome in the state of Borno, where nearly 60% of the population (3.3 million people) are still facing acute food insecurity (phases 3-5), including 55 000 people threatened by famine (phase 5). If no appro-priate measures are being taken, the current food and nutrition situation
is likely to get worse during the next lean season in June-August 2017. By then, the Cadre harmonisé projec-tions indicate that the number of severely food insecure people in the 16 analysed states could reach 8 to 10 million people. Analytical tools, data collection methods and training for local administrations need to be further developed in order to fine-tune and expand the analysis of the Cadre harmonisé to all parts of Nigeria.

CHINESE LOANS TO WEST AFRICAN GOVERNMENTS
West African governments have received some USD 18.2 billion in
Chinese loans since 2000. The amount of loans has progressively increased and reached, on average, about USD 2 billion per year over the past five years. Nigeria is the top recipient of Chinese loans in West Africa, followed by Ghana, Côte d’Ivoire and Senegal. This is nearly ten times less than the Chinese loans to Angola and less than half of the loans to Ethiopia or Kenya. On the other hand, Burkina Faso, Gambia and Guinea-Bissau have not yet received any Chinese loans. With the new government in place, Gambia’s ties with China are expected to grow, especially with Banjul’s USD 177 million port expansion project. Similarly, Burkina Faso resumed diplomatic relations with China in May 2018 when it accepted the one-China policy. In that country, China has already announced the construction of a hospital worth USD 253 million and negotiations
for a concession loan to build a new 300 km highway between Ouagadougou and Bobo Dioulasso are underway (USD 1.3 billion). The majority of Chinese loans to West Africa continue to fund infrastructure deals, mostly transportation (roads, railways, ports) and electric power projects. As regards increasing concerns about countries getting caught in a debt trap, the overall situation in West Africa is less worrying than in other parts of the continent. The amounts of Chinese loans in most West African countries are relatively small and have not contributed significantly to debt problems. Chinese loans to Ghana represent only 12% of Ghana’s total external debt (USD 29 billion). However, IMF warns of rising African debt, in particular in countries that already have heavy debt loads (Cabo Verde, Gambia, Ghana, Mauritania and Togo). Moreover, countries with fluctuating commodity prices such as Chad and Nigeria are the most at risk.

PRÊTS CHINOIS AUX GOUVERNEMENTS OUEST-AFRICAINS
Les États ouest-africains ont reçu 18.2 milliards de dollars US sous forme
de prêts chinois depuis 2000. Le montant de ces prêts a progressivement augmenté pour atteindre en moyenne environ 2 milliards de dollars US par an au cours des cinq dernières années. Le Nigéria est le premier bénéficiaire de ces prêts en Afrique de l’Ouest, suivi par le Ghana, la Côte d’Ivoire et le Sénégal. Cela représente une somme dix fois moins importante que les montants accordés à l’Angola et moins de la moitié de ceux accordés à l’Éthiopie ou au Kenya. Le Burkina Faso, la Gambie et la Guinée-Bissau n’ont encore reçu aucun de ces prêts. Avec le nouveau gouvernement en place, les liens entre la Gambie et la Chine devraient se renforcer, particulièrement avec le projet de modernisation du port de Banjul évalué à 177 millions de dollars US. De même, le Burkina Faso a repris ses relations diplomatiques avec la Chine en mai 2018 après avoir accepté la politique « d’une seule Chine ». Dans ce pays, la Chine a d’ores et déjà annoncé la construction d’un hôpital d’une valeur de 253 millions de dollars US et les
négociations d’un prêt concessionnel pour la construction d’une nouvelle autoroute de 300 km reliant Ouagadougou et Bobo Dioulasso sont en cours (1.3 milliard de dollars US). La majorité des prêts chinois à l’Afrique de l’Ouest financent des contrats d’infrastructures, principalement liées au transport (routes, chemins de fer, ports) et des projets d’électrification. En ce qui concerne le danger pour les pays de tomber dans le piège de l’endettement, la situation globale de l’Afrique de l’Ouest est un peu moins inquiétante que celles d’autres régions du continent. Les montants des prêts chinois y sont relativement faibles et ont jusque-là relativement peu contribué au problème global de la dette. Les prêts chinois au Ghana ne représentent que 12 % de la dette totale externe du Ghana (29 milliards de dollars US). Le FMI alerte cependant sur l’augmentation de la dette africaine, en particulier pour les pays déjà lourdement endettés (Cabo Verde, Gambie, Ghana, Mauritanie et Togo). De plus, les pays confrontés aux fluctuations des prix des matières premières tels que le Nigéria et le Tchad sont les plus exposés à ce risque.
