The Federal Government yesterday confirmed the outbreak of a new strain of Bird Flu in Kano State.

Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development Audu Ogbeh confirmed the outbreak at the ministry in Abuja.Ogbeh said the migration of birds from Europe is responsible for the outbreak, “as they stop to rest and feed at Adaeja basin before moving to South Africa”.

Ogbeh said the virus has only affected Kano State and advised farmers to take preventive measures to avoid further spread to other states.
On why there has not been a permanent cure for the virus, he said the constant change in the strain of the virus is responsible for this.

“There is bird flu in Cameroon and in Europe now, they move from Europe to South Africa in the winter, they stop in the Adaeja river basin for days to rest before they move on.

“We don’t have the vaccine yet, we are calling a meeting of all the commissioners of Agriculture to take measures to control it because there is no vaccine yet.

“We are telling farmers to try and take measures to avoid the spread of the disease.
“The strain keeps changes which is why vet doctors have not been able to find a solution to it.

“For now only Kano has an outbreak and we are controlling it, we are making sure there is no movement of chicken from state to state.

“Unfortunately those who lost chickens last year, we have not been able to compensate because we didn’t have money. We are putting some funds together to help them out.”

No need to pray didn't you remember the previous saga where birds were sold at cheaper rate. Your prayer should be let it happen so that you would buy birds for N1,500 instead of N6,000.hahaaaaaaaaaa

For this Christmas.....? Na to chop both the chicken and the flu.
Even HIV virus self cannot survive 30 minutes of continuous cook. So what are they saying

stop showcasing ur illiteracy





Just google aviann influenza and the different strains and stop making a fool of urself

Nothing political here

Bird flu this Christmas season ?
One should exercise caution in eating Chiken to avoid stories that touch

The necessary organizations should swing into action fast so it dosnt spread to other states especially during this yuletude

On top hunger? Nigeria which way?

Bird flue is what we called OTU KPURUKPURU. I remember those days when during December/January, we would have half of our fowls dying of the flui. Nna men we go chop meat like say no tomorrow.

This government shaaaa! Christmas don come den no want make we eat rice or chicken sef I'm sure next tomorrow we would hear that Mad cow and goat diseases don resurface back
