He said malaria was responsible for a large number of deaths and illnesses in Nigeria every year, particularly among young children under five years of age and pregnant women.

He said “according to the WHO, Nigeria accounted for 27 per cent  of the estimated global malaria cases in 2020, making it the country with the highest number of malaria cases in the world.

“The high burden of malaria in Nigeria highlights the urgent need for effective prevention and treatment measures to reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with this disease.

“Malaria prevention measures include the use of insecticide-treated bed nets, indoor residual spraying, and environmental management to reduce mosquito breeding sites.

Also, Access Corporation’s head of sustainability, Omobolanle Victor-Laniyan, said the outfitn was committed to supporting interventions aimed at reducing the incidence of malaria in Nigeria.

“Malaria is a significant public health concern in Nigeria, and efforts to control the disease require a coordinated approach involving multiple stakeholders, including the private sector.”
