This study, titled“An Assessment of Food Insecurity Among Low-Income Families in Nigeria: Evidence from the Tinubu Administration,” investigated the socio-economic characteristics of households, prevalence of food insecurity, coping strategies, and the perceived effects of recent government policies. A descriptive survey design was adopted, and data were collected from a sample of 100 households through structured questionnaires. Analysis was carried out using descriptive statistics (frequency and percentage). Findings revealed that 68% of households experienced moderate to severe food insecurity, with most earning below 30,000 monthly and spending over 70% of their income on food. Common coping strategies included meal reduction, skipping meals, and reliance on less preferred foods. The removal of fuel subsidies and exchange rate reforms were widely perceived as having worsened food insecurity, though palliatives provided temporary relief. The study concludes that food insecurity among low-income households is severe under current economic conditions. It recommends strengthening social protection measures, supporting smallholder farmers, controlling food inflation, and improving access to nutritious food. Development agencies and households are also encouraged to adopt food banks, cooperative buying, and home gardening initiatives....Preview Download Preview +Other Community Health project topics and materials you might be interested in»Knowledge and awareness of the effects of narcotic drug use among students of Federal Polytechnic Idah»Effect of immunization in children between the ages of 0-5 in family health centre Idah Local Government Area Kogi State»The effect of abortion on female students in College of Health Sciences and Technology Idah, Kogi»Factors influencing the attitude of women towards family planning - case study of Oke Eiri, Atan Local Government Area»Problem of pregnancy and abortion on girl child education in Nigeria»Effect of malnutrition among children under five years of age in Patigi community of Patigi local government area of Kwara state»Attitude of couple toward modern family planning practice in Birnin Gwari, Birnin Gwari local government, Kaduna state»Importance of exclusive breast feeding on the health of an infant - case study of Idah local government area of Kogi state»Knowledge of protein energy malnutrition and its prevention among mothers with children below five years of age in Ubiegbe Community Idah, Lga, Kogi state»The impact of community health works in elderly condition in Ungogo local government»Causes, effects and control of communicable diseases in secondary schools»A study on the causes, effects, prevention and control of threatened abortion among childbearing mothers ages (18-45) years in Gilead Children Hospital»Causes and effects of drug abuse among adolescent in Amede community»Assessment of prevalence malaria among the patients attending Tofa comprehensive hospital»Assessing the mother knowledge on the benefit of breast feeding among children 0 - 24 months - a case study of Matoya village Maigatari local government, Jigawa state
