Countering Malaria

My community, sometime last year had a reason to smile about.APHIA II  an organisation which mainly deals with health issues toured our area after learning of the community's malaria plight. Malaria had before attacked several people in my area and it had proved to be a disaster. Even some few children under the age of 5 had succumbed to it. Aphia II organised a forum where it taught community members on ways of combating this disease. Things like sleeping under a treated mosquito net, draining stagnant water were highlighted. The organisation went further to issue out free mosquito nets to the people. Actually Aphia II did somethiong worth commendable.
