Malnutrition cases among children in South Sudan’s Kapoeta State have significantly reduced since the intervention of health and humanitarian organizations, said the medical director of Kapoeta Civil Hospital.
Mustapha Lokoro told Radio Tamazuj on Wednesday that they now record about 7 malnutrition cases daily from about 100 cases witnessed daily in January and February.
“Malnutrition cases among children here now have reduced, it is not like before because some NGOs have come and they started working,” said Lokoro.
He appealed to the health and humanitarian organizations to continue saving children’s lives by providing the much needed heath and humanitarian assistance.
