The United Nation's World Food Programme (WFP) says that more than 20 million people in the Horn of Africa need food aid because of two years of poor rainfall. The body says cuts in its funding have made it more difficult to feed people across Kenya, Somalia, Somaliland, Eritrea, Djibouti and Ethiopia. The WFP says an added problem is that congestion in Djibouti's port is holding up the flow of relief supplies. About fourteen million people in the region were said to need food aid last year. <br/>The BBC Correspondent in the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa says that the WFP is particularly concerned about Eritrea because it cannot get any reliable information. The Ethiopian government and WFP are trying to persuade Sudan and Somalia's breakaway region of Somaliland to allow their ports to be used.<br/>
