The HungerFREE team continued with its important meetings with country missions to the UN on day two here at the United Nations. Among these were meetings with the Nigerian Mission and Senegal’s mission to the UN.
Hilda Dokubo, the famous Nigerian actress stopped fellow Nigerians in their tracks as she walked into the Nigerian building. She had an extra twinkle in her eyes as she, and fellow Nigerian, Aderonke from ActionAid, met with Aya-Kalata Gobo, the second secretary of the Nigerian Mission to the United Nations.
Later in the afternoon, we assembled for our second day of protests outside of the United Nations: armed with our voices, whistles and drums. The sound carried all the way to the corridors of the UN and enticed more supporters out of their offices to learn about HungerFREE. With media interest being drawn from all over the, world SABC Africa and other journalists spent time to capture moments of the campaign. The atmosphere was electrifying.
Ms. Aderonke Faniyan owned the mic and chanted “a hungry person is an unproductive person!” a 
strong willed youth activist from Nigeria said “Hunger is real; I felt hunger and it is something I do not want to ever experience again, I am here to ask the UN to show us their commitment by halving hunger by 2015.”
