As a strategy to reduce the burden of malaria in Cross River State and the country at large, the Cross River State government has flagged off a campaign for the  kick-off of distribution of  2,797,350 insecticide treated mosquito nets  in 1,025 distribution points across 196 wards in the state.

The distribution which is in partnership with Federal Ministry of Health through National Malaria Elimination Programme and other rollback malaria partners  with funding and support from  the US president’s Malaria initiative, is to intensify effort to increase access to the nets which are durable and  cost effective.

At the flag-off ceremony in  Calabar yesterday, a representative of Governor Bassey Edet Otu stated that the use of treated nets had  proven to be one of the most effective malaria prevention interventions.

Representing the governor, the state deputy governor, Rt. Hon. Peter Odey, said  beyond  nets  distribution, consistent and correct use of  nets by sleeping inside it every night all year round was necessary for effective protection from mosquito bites which  spread malaria.

Otu identified malaria as the leading cause of maternal and child deaths in Nigeria stressing that with better strategy, it can be prevented and cured.
