The convoy of aid trucks conveying humanitarian food supplies for conflict-affected, was ambushed by a non-state armed group in Borno state. The UN humanitarian coordinator in Nigeria, Edward Kallon, has confirmed the attack on an aid convoy in Borno.In a report by TheCable, Kallon said the deadly ambush on the convoy carrying humanitarian food supplies for conflict-affected is capable of limiting the organisation’s work in Nigeria.In a statement released by the UN on Monday, December 18, 2017, the aid agency expressed grave concern over the limitations that attacks on aids trucks may have on the delivery of life-saving supplies to people in need in north-east Nigeria.“Violence against convoys carrying humanitarian aid is unacceptable and can result in concerning limitations in our ability to provide life-saving relief to those who need it the most,” Kallon said.
