The paramount traditional ruler of the area, the Agwam Takad, Mr Tobias Wada, urged residents to visit health facilities in the event of illness.

Wada advised that rather than trying unspecified traditional treatment that would escalate their illness, they should seek conventional medical attention to arrest the situation in good time.

The council’s Director of Health, Mrs Rahab Kurmi, also appreciated the support accorded health programmes by stakeholders.

Kurmi expressed satisfaction that results of previous immunisation exercises were encouraging.
