Osun State government has advised residents to avoid consuming unhygienic food to prevent cholera outbreaks in the state.
The State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, gave the advice on Saturday during the commissioning of primary health centres and borehole water projects implemented by the state’s community and social development agency in the Odo-Oba community, Iwo area of the state.
In June, the Nigeria Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (NCDC) announced that the country recorded 53 deaths and 1,528 suspected cases of cholera across 107 local government areas (LGAs) in 31 states.
