Mrs Soludo Becomes Anambra State Net Ambassador



Wife of the Governor of Anambra State, Mrs Nonye Soludo has been made the Anambra State Net Ambassador.

Mrs Soludo received the ambassadorial badge during the official flag off of the distribution of 3.8 million free Insecticide Treated Nets (ITNs) to Anambra homes, in Awka.

The Governor's wife was given the honour in recognition of her age-long efforts in hygiene and healthy living.

Accepting the investiture, Mrs Soludo noted that she was disturbed that malaria is still handled lightly despite that the disease is one of the major public health problems in Nigeria, with over 97% of the population, especially pregnant women and children under the age of 5 at risk. 

She stated that the free insecticide treated nets, which would be distributed across Anambra households, emphasizes the readiness of her husband's administration to tackle malaria-related issues in the state head on.

Mrs Soludo also urged households in Anambra State to capitalize on the dividends of the programme by providing accurate information needed for the commencement and distribution of the nets which will begin from 2nd to 17th of August, 2022.

The free insecticide net exercise is a partnership between the Anambra State Ministry of Health, the Federal Ministry of Health and the open philanthropic funding through the Malaria Consortium.
