WFP urgently seeking over $30 million to keep feeding Congolese refugees in Burundi

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

Burundi The World Food Programme is seeking more than $30 million to maintain food assistance for Congolese refugees in Burundi, warning that supplies could run out as early as October 2026 without additional funding.

The agency estimates it needs around $5 million every month to assist Congolese refugees across Burundi, including $1 million for Busuma camp in the east.

Nayonde Mbirizi, a 40-year-old Congolese refugee, said the assistance was insufficient, while strong winds and deteriorating tents were creating additional hardship.
