malaria presents a huge burden to Africa and continues to cripple the economic development of the

continent. In Nigeria the disease is responsible for 60 per cent of outpatient visits to health facilities,

30 per cent of childhood deaths, 25 per cent of deaths under one year and 11 per cent of maternal

deaths. In financial terms, the disease is estimated to cost the country about 132 billion naira

(US$862.4 million) every year taking into account treatment and prevention costs, and loss of

working hours.
