2EXISTENCE OF HUNGER ISSUES IN AFRICA
Summary
Gates (2018) in his article on the existence of the hunger issues in Africa had mentioned
that the malnutrition had affected the children who had been residing in the country. The
malnutrition faced by the children had resulted in conditions wherein the actual age of the
children could not be guessed. The author states that the government should lay more stress on
the quality of the food that is accessible by the common people of the country especially the
pregnant women and the recent mothers.
Response
The two articles that have been studied in this case majorly focusses on the hunger issues
that have been affecting the residents of many countries all around the world. The authors of the
articles tend to put forth many suggestions so as to help in the eradication of the various issues
related to the hunger and the malnutrition of the concerned residents of the country, especially
the children and the pregnant ladies who might be found to have been lacking the nutrition that
they should receive in order to remain healthy.
Gates (2018) in his article argues that the concerned governmental authorities might need
to emphasize on the conduction of the researches that deal with the quality of the food that is
provided to the masses that have been residing in the concerned country. The researchers are
advised to focus majorly on the quality of the food that is to be provided and the ways and means
that are used to make them available to the concerned members and residents of the society.
On the contrary, Wario (2018) argues that the distribution of the food and nutritional
elements might be made easily available to the target members of the country, especially the
children, the pregnant ladies and the ladies who have recently given birth to their children. The

article suggests that this might help in the eradication of the existent malnutritional issues. The
nutrition that is availed by pregnant ladies globally needs to be very high in the nutritional value
and thus the governmental bodies all over the world are advised to pay special attention to the
food that is accessible and recommended to these members of the society in order to maintain the
fatality rate of the fetuses and the various medical issues that might trouble the concerned ladies.
