Obokoh stated that the nets would be distributed to the people through a door-to-door campaign adding that every household across the 275 wards in the 25 Local Government Areas of the state.

According to Obokoh, simultaneous household registration and distribution will commence from September 1 to 12, 2022.

She added that the state government would arrest those who sold the nets that were meant for free distribution.

“We are aware that branded nets that are meant to be distributed for free are sold but we have done some advocacy visits to curtail this.

“We have paid advocacy visits to security agents appealing to them to provide us with monitoring and surveillance to ensure our nets don’t get to the wrong hands, nor are they sold on the streets.”

She also added that 97 per cent of Nigerians were at risk of malaria adding that 1 of 3 malaria-related deaths globally occurred in Nigeria.
