Abstract
Malaria is a significant public health burden in Nigeria, accounting for a substantial number of cases and deaths annually. Regrettably, the Malaria disease burden in line with the WHO (2023) report showed that there were 249 million cases of malaria in 2022 when compared to 244 million cases in 2021 and the number of malaria deaths stood at 608,000 in 2022 compared to 610 000 in 2021. It is highly appalling that among the list of four African countries that accounted for just over half of all malaria deaths worldwide, Nigeria is leading with the limited data provided at 26.8%, followed by the Democratic Republic of the Congo (12.3%), Uganda (5.1%) and Mozambique (4.2%) (WHO, 2023)
