On July 4, 2025, Oyo State announced it will distribute nearly 5 million insecticide-treated mosquito nets in August to fight malaria, focusing on pregnant women and children under five. The nets, effective for three years, aim to reduce infections across urban and rural areas. Residents are urged to use them properly—hang correctly, sleep under them nightly, keep clean, avoid sunlight, and repair damages. The government, supported by health partners, stresses that community cooperation is vital for the success of this life-saving public health initiative.
