NDDC managing director, Dr Samuel Ogbuku, disclosed this yesterday during a medical outreach to commemorate the 2024 World Malaria Day at Umuaka-Obehi community in Ukwa-West local government area of Abia State.

Ogbuku, who was represented by the head of Education, Health and Social Services, Okechukwu Obia stated that the sensitisation programme was in line with the mandate of the commission across the nine Niger Delta states.

He said that the sensitisation programme was to create awareness in the rural communities on the measures put in place to prevent malaria.

The NDDC boss said, “This programme is in line with the mandate of the commission on rural community projects to people who may not have access to good hospital in the rural communities.”
