According to NAN, the Cholera Situation Report documents over 3,598 deaths resulting from Cholera across the country in 2021.

The Ministry of Water Resources has described figures recorded for cholera-related deaths in the country last year as unacceptable.The ministry queried the figure, stating that the number of deaths recorded from Cholera was less than COVID-19 in the past year.

“These figures are not acceptable, the number of deaths from cholera was actually less than COVID-19; waterborne diseases are actually preventable, and all we need to do is to ensure that our people have access to clean and safe potable water at all times.” Also, the age group of five to 14 years was the most affected, with Bauchi, Jigawa, Kano states, and Zamfara leading.

“These reports of a resurgence of cholera in states and in the FCT is a worrisome public health crisis, especially coming amid the emergence of the highly infectious Omicron, showing the third wave of COVID-19 cases,” he said.
