Before you read the news, I paid a visit to Kano and two people died of cholera in the neighbourhood. Many people are afraid and getting indoor. I'm really sad because I know one of the man personally and I attended his church anytime I'm in Kano. He is a pastor. The Cholera outbreak in Kano is under-reported. A lot of people are dying.

Now the news:

…We’re working tirelessly to arrest situation – Govt

By Bashir Bello, Kano

The death toll of persons who lost their lives to the Cholera outbreak that ravages 41 out of 44 Local Government areas of Kano State has risen to 169.

The Director of Public Health, Kano State Ministry of Health, Dr Ashiru Rajab who confirmed this in an interview with newsmen said the casualties were recorded within the last three months in the state.

Dr Rajab said about 191 persons affected were currently receiving treatments in various health facilities in the state.
The Director was also quick to say the government is working tirelessly to arrest and address the situation.

According to him, “We have recorded 5,221 cases in the last three months. About 4,860 were treated and discharged. Currently, we have 191 active cases in different facilities across the State, while 169 deaths were recorded across the 41 Local Government Areas of the state.
“Kano State Government had embarked on massive sensitization and enlightenment campaign to the general populace especially the Rural Dwellers on measures needed to be implored in maintaining environmental and personal hygiene to avoid outbreaks.
“Similarly, the Government had provided the needed medications such as fluids, drugs and other essential facilities in government hospitals geared towards addressing the menace,” Dr Rajab however stated.

I still don't understand the usefulness of these politicians from the north. They are the major in the combine houses and yet they are the most affected with diseases that has to do with bad hygiene... Can they provide pipe borne water for their people... The poverty rate in that region is almost of the entire population of these country... What are their leaders doing.. With all the allocations, palliatives and so on... They must have been diverting all these funds to something else.
