As a sure response to the disturbing
rate of malaria outbreak with its attendant side effect recently witnessed in
Sokoto State, Governor Aminu Tambuwal has approved the establishment of a
dedicated agency known as Malaria Control Agency.
The Malaria Control Agency will
focus on all major possible preventive measures for all tropical diseases.
The agency, according to a statement
signed by the governor’s spokesperson, Imam Imam, will take off in January 2017
and will be the focal point of implementing all policies related to malaria
prevention and treatment in the state.
Imam Imam pointed out that the
agency will provide administrative, secretarial, communications, and logistical
support in the drive to contain malaria and all related tropical diseases.
