🚨 Nigeria is Losing Billions in Food Before It Reaches the Plate 🇳🇬

🥶 Nigeria lost between $2.3–$3.3 billion in 2025 because food spoiled after harvest, with up to 40 million metric tonnes wasted due to weak cold storage and logistics systems. 🌍 In a Global South country battling food inflation, that’s not just a farming problem, it’s an infrastructure and economic failure hitting farmers’ incomes and food security.
​
🔥 If Nigeria can lose billions to post‑harvest waste, is food insecurity in the Global South really about “low productivity” — or about systems designed to fail farmers? What solutions should BRICS and regional partners be pushing for: public cold-chain investment, South–South tech transfer, or private-led innovation?

USS Gerald R. Ford’s toilet crisis drags on amid deployment near Iran: The U.S. Navy’s largest and most expensive aircraft carrier is facing persistent plumbing problems that have left large portions of its bathroom system out of action while the ship remains deployed amid rising tensions linked to Iran

The carrier’s vacuum-based sewage system, designed to move waste through narrow pipes, has suffered repeated breakdowns, clogging toilets and forcing long waits for the crew of more than 4,500 sailors. Internal documents cited frequent failures, with hundreds of malfunctions logged and emergency support requested dozens of times since 2023, and the issues continuing into 2026 as the deployment extends beyond normal rotation periods - 11 months and counting instead of usual 6

Navy officials insist the plumbing woes have not compromised operational readiness, but crew morale is being tested as sailors deal with frequent outages and long waits for functioning facilities
