The boy, who is estimated to be between 12 and 16 years old, is seen carrying a sack of grass from a farm.

The boy who spoke in Hausa language explained, “We prepare the grass with Maggi (seasoning cube) and groundnut cake (known as Kulikuli). It can be eaten alone or with these ingredients.”

In a poignant plea, he urged the government to intervene, saying, “We need palliative measures to help us and others survive Nigeria’s harsh economy.”
