WFP: Zimbabwe Facing Worst Food Insecurity in Memory

Columbus Mavhunga

   HARARE - Zimbabwe is facing its worst food insecurity in recent memory,
   with more than five million people in need of assistance until the next
   harvest begins in April, the World Food Program says.

   Eddie Rowe, head of the WFP in Zimbabwe, says the need for food
   assistance was once confined to rural areas, but now some 2 million
   people in urban areas also need help.
