Bacterium which causes cholera disease and is transmitted by contaminated waterExperts have stressed the need for Nigerians to improve their hygiene habits, saying this is important in curbing the spread of cholera disease.

“The issue of cholera is about personal and environmental hygiene. Now that we are in the rainy season, we should make sure the drains are clear; we should avoid throwing our waste into the gutters. “More importantly, if anyone is having frequent stool, he or she should report immediately to the health facility. During the rainy season like this, cholera disease is always rampant. Therefore, people should watch the kind of water they drink. There is also the need to urge people selling water to ensure that the water they are selling to the people is safe for drinking,” Fagbemi said.
