Commissioner for Agriculture and Food Security in the state, Mr Ebenezer Boluwade who gave the warning in Ado-Ekiti, described Avian Influenza as a zoonotic disease that can be transmitted from birds to man and vice versa.

Boluwade stressed that the highly infectious disease could have devasting effects on poultry, if not prevented.

He charged concerned stakeholders to increase biosecurity measures on their farms, especially now that suspected cases of the disease have been reported in some states in Nigeria.

The Commissioner further advised stakeholders to regularly clean and disinfect their clothings, foot wears and equipment, as well as vehicles used on the farms to prevent the spread of the influenza to Ekiti State.
