Sumaya Muhamed Bala

Sumaya Muhamed Bala is a humanitarian worker from northern Nigeria who has expressed deep concern over the impact of the recent cuts to U.S. foreign aid, particularly regarding the loss of emergency food assistance for malnourished mothers and children. Her organization, which previously relied heavily on USAID funding, faced sudden closure, leaving her and many others without employment and jeopardizing vital support services in her community.
