Authorities, partners and community leaders align under 2026 World Malaria Day theme, calling for sustained investment, stronger systems and collective responsibility to end malaria burden.

The Bauchi State Commissioner for Health and Social Welfare, Dr Sani Muhammad Dambam, has called for renewed urgency and coordinated action in tackling malaria, as the state joined the global community to commemorate World Malaria Day 2026 under the theme, Driven to End Malaria:- Now We Can. Now We Must.
Represented by the Director of Public Health, Alhaji Abdullahi Dan’asabe, the commissioner said government has intensified interventions through large-scale distribution of insecticide-treated mosquito nets, continuous training of frontline health workers and expanded community-based outreach programmes. He described these efforts as “critical pillars in reducing malaria prevalence and safeguarding vulnerable populations.

Dr Dambam stressed that prevention, early diagnosis and prompt treatment must remain central to the state’s health strategy, warning that any sign of complacency at this stage could reverse the fragile gains achieved over the years. He called for increased domestic funding, improved disease surveillance and equitable healthcare access, particularly in rural and hard-to-reach communities.

Malaria is not only a health concern but a development challenge, he said, pointing to poor sanitation, inadequate housing and low public awareness as underlying drivers of transmission. He urged a multi-sectoral approach involving environmental management, education and community participation.
