Phone 452-2805 24 hour service famine tightens grip by Alfred Friendly Umu Ahia Biafra Spe Cial tons the Impact of the famine in Biafra devastatingly visible in any Rural Village is distilled to its terrible essence in the statistics of Biafra s largest Hospital. Handling somewhere be tween 200 and 400 total cases of malnutrition a year in the period preceding Biafra s rebellion against the Parent nation of the Queen Elizabeth Hospi Tal in this City now treats As Best it can which is very Little anywhere from boo to children a Day. More than 80 per cent of them suffer from under nourishment in acute stages. We now see and. Could admit if we had the facilities More patients in one Day than in a whole year before the or. W. C. Shepherd the Hospital medical superintendent declared tuesday. It is a matter of dispute whether the famine in the heartland of the country is at this stage one of absolute food deficiency or whether the Supply of carbohydrates in the frn s of yams cassava Swee potatoes Maize and plantain is momentarily adequate. But there is no dispute whatever of the fact that the Over whelming immediate prob Lem is the Lack of proteins. They were formerly furnished by poultry from the regions now occupied by nigerian troops from cattle imported from Northern Nigeria from fresh fish in River areas and. Salt fish now no longer import Able As before from Europe. Local supplies of chickens cows sheep and goats Are visibly or. Shepherd asserted. And even if supplies of starch food suffice for the time it is Clear that they will not in a few months. It is expected that the sep tember harvests once stored to last for a year will be consumed next year far in Advance of the traditional hungry months of june july and August. Figures permitting judg ment on the present and expected shortfall Are wildly divergent making it impossible to state with any precision the numbers of starving people. The most favourable estimate from european of the Root of the problem is that the area controlled by the biafran government former a population of and even then was nowhere near self support ing but was obliged to make substantial imports from elsewhere. To this Popula Tion has now been added refugee Mouths to feed. At the other extreme is the biafran. Estimate of an original population of in the lands still held to which have come an additional refugees. Some to refugees Are now living in government Camps. The rest Are in the three remaining Large cities Umu Ahia Aba and Oterri whose populations Are said to have and mainly in the. Bush i.e., in the villages and family compounds in the tropical rain Forest. A visit to several such compounds Yin two villages picked at random near the town of Okpala presented the picture with heart breaking vividness and demonstrated the truth of the general proposition that it is the refugee families Back in the villages of that suffer worst. These Are the ones who having lived in cities or different environments can not adjust either their minds or their bodies to absence from the Graves they worshipped and the land and foods they were used to. The children whose skins and hair were yellow from Kwashiorkor a protein deficiency whose bellies were distended whose skin was without any perceptible muscle tone and the infants whose matchstick dangled from around which the skin was stretched so tightly As to reveal every rib shoulder and Collar Bone these were largely the children of refugees dependent on the african extended family for whatever sub stance they had. Most horrifying perhaps were the three and four year plus now weaned and living on an almost exclusive starch diet. Unlike other better fed or at least better adjusted toddlers in the compounds who scuttled in fright behind their mothers skirts at the approach of strangers and the glaring eyes of cameras the refugee children sat or stood motionless expressionless in fact reaction less. It s a children War i m said father Kevin Doheny head of the Irish holy ghost fathers Mission and Seminary in Okpala. The parents of the worst afflicted children to report to his Mission s daily distribution of food consisting of one cup of milk and a handful of Beans which have some father Broderick will be angry at me i he said. He already turns away children worse than some of these but How can i not Send these to him father Sean Broderick of the missionary order is running his present food distribution on the basis of one 100-Pound sack of dried milk and a few Beans supplied by the Catholic organization Caritas internationale flown in by risky night flights from the Span ish. Island of Ferando poor from portuguese Sao Tome. Father Donal o Sullivan Superior of the order which once ran 100 schools with 300 priests in the Eastern Region of Nigeria his missions Are now urging the population to eat lizards snakes grass hoppers locusts White ants dogs and monkeys. They Are All sources of protein and Are not As unfamiliar to an african diet As a Westerner might first imagine. To at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital of. Shepherd opened his record Book to show that in 1963 his organization treated As out. Patients Only 12 cases of Kwashiorkor and to the Hospital an additional six. In 1965 the figures were 30 and 13 respectively. But in 1967, the tally was. 819 and 174, with 28 deaths. The War began in Earnest in the Middle of that year. Figures for malnutrition ail ments other than Kwashiorkor Are much or. Shepherd indicated. His Hospital Sim by com bind protestant in Biafra has run out of several important medicines and the treatment it is Able to give the malnutrition Cassis woefully insufficient. For where it used to dispense a minimum of three Vitamin b tablets daily to each malnourished child it now gives one.
