All around the world people are dying every second. Africa is a continent of over 50 countries, and has millions of people and so it has millions of children. As a result of many parts of Africa being subject to difficult conditions and people not having a lot of food, many people are dying. Children find it harder to survive in such conditions so they will die.

As well as hunger they will get many diseases and are not strong enough to fight them off or don't have basic medication available to them. An illness that can be treated easily in some parts of the world because medication is easily available can be fatal in parts of the world where they don't have that.

It is hard to quantify the exact statistics and say that it is every 10 seconds that an African child will die, but it certainly would be extremely regularly that they do die, compared to richer parts of the world where people have enough to eat, where diseases are easier to control and medication is easily available, so it would be close to the truth.

The statistic that an African child dies every ten seconds is not accurate. While child mortality rates in some African countries remain tragically high, the situation varies widely across the continent and has been improving in recent years thanks to efforts to improve healthcare, nutrition, and living conditions.
