At a one-day sensitisation programme held at the Congregation Hall of Sokoto South local government, the state’s commissioner for Health, Dr Faruku Umar Abubakar, revealed that 300 individuals have been impacted by the outbreak, with 16 still receiving medical treatment.

He urged residents to stay vigilant and seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms such as high fever, vomiting or stiffness of the neck.

The event, organised by the State Ward Development Committee (WDC), in collaboration with the State Ministry of Health and the Primary Healthcare Development Agency, brought together government officials, health experts and community leaders to discuss effective strategies for managing the outbreak.

The chairman of the State WDC, Comrade Bala Gadanga, said the campaign which was the first of its kind in Sokoto, was prompted by the rising number of meningitis cases in various local government areas.
