Anti-malaria Campaign: Over 34.7m Mosquito Nets Distributed in Nigeria in 2025

Nigeria’s malaria control efforts recorded a major milestone in 2025 with the successful distribution of more than 34.7 million insecticide-treated mosquito nets (ITNs) across 10 states through an extensive logistics operation coordinated by the Society for Family Health (SFH).

Project Director of the Supply Chain Initiative (SCI), Christopher Dangana, a pharmacist, said the exercise was implemented in partnership with the National Malaria Elimination Programme (NMEP), the Catholic Relief Services, and supported by the Global Fund and other development partners.

He described the intervention as one of the most efficient public health logistics operations in recent years.

“The distribution of over 34.7 million nets is not just a logistical achievement; it is a direct protection for millions of Nigerians at risk of malaria,” Dangana said.
