No fewer than 600,000 children aged between 3 months and 5 years in 11 Local government areas of Kwara State are to receive free malaria care.

The state Commissioner for health, Dr Raji Razaq made the disclosure in a statement in Ilorin.

According to him, free malaria care is part of the benefits of the multimillion naira counterpart funds paid by the state government to access various basic healthcare programmes for the people of the state.

Dr Razaq said the state government has received anti-Malaria commodities worth over N344 million naira preparatory to the forthcoming house-to-house distribution of Antimalaria medications.

He explained that the booster is aimed at positioning the State-Based Malaria Elimination Programme to reach all eligible children in the Chemoprevention exercise along with 19 other states of the federation.
