Nigeria has received at least $247.3m in total humanitarian funding so far in 2026, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs revealed in its latest report covering eight crisis-affected countries in West and Central Africa.
Of the total sum, the report said $232.8m flowed through the country’s Humanitarian Needs and Response Plan.
This is a sharp increase that raised the country’s $516.4m humanitarian requirement to 47 per cent, the second-highest coverage rate among the countries surveyed.
The figures were drawn from OCHA’s latest weekly West and Central Africa Regional Funding Status report for the period that ended June 22, 2026.
The report relied on data from the UN’s Financial Tracking Service.
