“The United States Agency for International Development USAID, initiative has procured a total of 5,670, 644 nets for the state, and the state is expected to pay a counterpart fund of N 210, 243.000.

According to Ajetumobi, the counterpart fund will address micro planning which includes, logistics, flag off, net campaign, storage and distribution across the 33 local governments of the state.

”Just as we know that the burden of severe malaria in Oyo State disproportionately affects the vulnerable population particularly children under five, pregnant women and the elderly.

“Malaria, if happened during pregnancy, can lead to severe outcomes ranging from severe anaemia, miscarriage, and low birth weight which she said adversely affect maternal and foetal health”, she said.

Ajetumobi assured that every household would benefit from the net distribution exercise with consideration for the vulnerable persons particularly children under five years, pregnant women and the elderly.
